[quote=Anonymous]OP, I didn’t read the responses but I am only a few years younger than you and have been married for almost twenty years. I have a few thoughts about this. A lot of people my age think that any conflict or resentment over the past at all equals divorce and rejection. It’s common to blow up and inflame tensions and romanticize the distant past and/or people that one knows a little but not very well. It’s also long enough to know your partner’s flaws and reality to set in. People who run from reality and think that life should be a Hallmark movie or Netflix comedy/drama often divorce after this point. If they don’t want to pay the price and are cowards, they cheat. It’s a worldview and it’s the default one for Gen X. It’s the children of divorce generation after all. Serial shallow relationships are their default.[/quote]
