Mid life crisis
| Sat, 07-17-2010 - 9:35am |
Do you believe you could be going through mid-life crisis? I was wondering if I was ! I am 53 and married for 30 good years to my high school sweet heart.I googled it yday and do seem to say 'yes' to some of the 'symptoms' of mid life crisis.I honestly thought that it was something that men go through but to my surprise,its women who go through it as well!
Having an A at this age is one of the symptoms as well ! I dont regret my A though ;)

I suppose it could be a reason for some people, but not the only reason.

i guess if it's labeled "life crisis", getting the "mid" out of it, it'd make more sense.. people, men and women, have it at different stages in life, though, one item or pattern, it seems, that it appears to be some sort of a straw-camel event or reckoning in the family/person's life.. in my case it was, and so as it was in my AP's case.. what that reckoning or crisis could be.. depends on each life story, right?.. and i think, we did talk about here a "40s" age range being the top of the bell curve..
For me I guess its normal,lol.My AP is 56 ,gotta ask him ,lol

I had a pretty traumatic experience with mine. Ended up pretty much ending my marriage (there were a lot of issue, but I had a certain freak-out that was definitely a culmination). On the upside, I ended up writing a book about the whole ordeal :) [Insert shameless plug here] It's called "Al Ttansou" and you can download it here: http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/38903 Enjoy!
