Is there anyone with a happy ending???? I still haven't heard of one happy marriage that survived a wife, or husband for that matter, who went through an MLC.

Please let me know if any of you are out there...

I found out six weeks ago that her feelings have changed and she's not sure about us. Apparently she shut down because she tired of my overreactions to minor situations and now feels empty. I have been diagnosed with anxiety disorder and do overreact on occasion, although she admits that it's always over and forgotten after a couple minutes. »more»

I just wanted to see how many SUCCESS STORIES on moving on are there..

How many of you are remarried and happy, in a good relationship with someone, or just feel that being single is the best thing for you.

Too many sad MidlifeCrisis stories here – so I just would like to see some happy MOVED ON victims of MLC in there past relationship. »more»

The middle age years can be a challenging time for many. Marital issues, job problems, midlife crises, elder care, empty next, health concerns and many more are all possible. Some find themselves turning to religion more than ever before and this is evidenced by the frequency of such phrases as "turning to faith" in the LifeTwo discussion forums. »more»

I've decided to try for a healthier marriage rather than an affair or walking away, to ease the pain I feel over how my life has turned out. Why? Because of the potential rewards to be found in working out problems instead of tossing them out the door. I think there must be a baby in that basin of dirty bathwater. After all, who else would know you and work with you when you're old? »more»

Hi. My husband is 28 and I am 22. We have been married for three years this coming April. It has been really hard for us ever since we got married but we have made it through. A few months ago, he broke down and said he just felt kinda depressed and like he hasn't done anything with his life. He also said he doesn't feel like he can do anything, I guess as far as hobbies and stuff. »more»

I have raised my two sons on my own for over 10 years. They are both now young adults (23 and 19) and still live at home. Both are working and one also attends the local community college. In recent years, friends have commented on the fact that my sons still live with me. I have been feeling "guilty" that perhaps I am not doing enough to get them out and on their own. »more»

Going through my midlife crisis, one of the things that's changed for me is music. I had to dump a lot of old things from my Ipod list because they were getting me down. Example: Elton John music. I loved his classic playlist all my life. I loved "Don't let the Sun Go Down On Me" so much, I'd sing it in the grocery store. Now? »more»

Other women who've been working since they were twenty will now have retirement income. Not me. I stayed home. I got the joy of watching every step of my children's infancy and childhood. Now I'm stuck with just me.

As I make my way out into the sunshine, I sure would love to hear what other people have to say about being "just a homemaker" and what happens next.

My husband is in the military and currently on an 18 month unaccompinied tour in South America. We have two children and have been married for almost 18 years. We met when we were 17 and got married at 19 years old. He has always been good w/finances and was a devoted father and husband. »more»

My husband of 5 years who is only 32 has been cheating with various women for our entire marriage. He has mistreated me for several years hoping that I would just get tired of it and leave him. I love him dearly and we together have a 4 year old son. We have also accepted responsibility of his soon to be 6 year old niece and I have an 11 year old son from my 1st marriage. »more»

I am a 36 Year old Army Officer who is also the father of a blended family. I have two stepsons, (14 and 10) that call me "Dad", and a 5 year old little girl with my present wife. I have only been married once, and that is all I ever plan to be married regardless. »more»
