[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is he having a mid life crisis?[/quote] NP, but pretty clearly yes. I'm 47, and when I hit about 41-42, I went through a rough patch -- nothing like what OP describes, but in particular I got very resentful about our subpar sex life. But I don't think it was just about sex. I think it was a midlife problem -- if our sex life had been good, I probably would have fixated on something else. One thing that helped was reading about studies showing that life happiness tends to hit a trough in your 40s, but tends to get better in your 50s. (Part of the problem before that was visualising life continuing to decline forever until I died.) I'm rambling a little bit here, but here's an article: "Life satisfaction falls in our 20s and 30s, then hits a trough in our late 40s before increasing until our 80s." https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2018/may/05/happiness-curve-life-gets-better-after-50-jonathan-rauch[/quote]
