To What is a midlife crisis?????

Hello,

First, if you haven't already I would suggest you listen to the podcast for women and MLC here on "Lifetwo". Here is the link for it: http://lifetwo.com/production/node/20070327-lifetwos-basics-podcast-epis...

For now, it sounds from what you have shared more of a difference in ages btwn. you and your husband. Everyone goes through changes in a marriage regardless of their ages, but with such a large gap in ages and a young start on a family you didn't really get to even experience the "normal" things that a young lady would get to do. Your husband seems to be more settled at 40 while you are just ready to (or maybe you have been for awhile, but just now are expressing it)broaden your horizons.

Well, listen to the podcasts and take inventory for yourself to answer some of your own questions. Talk to your husband about how you are feeling and if need be get counseling.
