Well, there is no question whatsoever that I am yet another LBS with an MLC husband, age 45, about 2 years into his MLC. I can relate to absolutely every word contained here... funny but SAD.
I've dealt with all the speeches, detachment, lies and more lies, girlfriend who can't survive without my husband, cake eating, major revisions of history, avoid/ignore/runaway, therapy, 'I don't have to if I don't want to and you can't make me' (just heard that one 30 minutes ago), moving out, clinging, self-absorbtion, 'you're poisoning my kids against me', and even the BLAME game. I've even dealt with the suicide threats, and my husband's best friend he was confiding in daily killing himself.
So... my question. Since my MLC husband has absolutely no recognition whatsoever that he's in a MLC (because of course his crazy behavior is all my fault)... should us LBSers share this 'MidLife for Dummies' and show our MLCer who he really is? Or is it totally off-limits to actually show this to our MLCer? I'm curious what others have done!
