helping partner with mid-life issues
Tue, 10-05-2004 - 10:25pm
I realize all surveys (even those on ivillage) are 100% applicable to everyone. However, my 41 year old boyfriend is displaying symptoms of mid-life crisis described in an article published here. Any thoughts on how to help him cope with

1) boredome at work

2) indecisive about buying home

3) committing more effort in buidling out connection. I feel like I do too much. But I know he needs positive reinforcement so he might turn away if I stop trying.

Please help!
