Midlife crisis
I always hear about men having midlife crises but do women?
I'm 36 and have begun to evaluate my life. I've been with my husband since I was 19 we have children together. He goes out does his hobbies I stay in have no friends as prior to my husband I struggled befriending women and got on better with males but being married that was a no go area. Soo I'm sitting at home lonely, my life going by in a flash. In what I deem has a loveless marriage, there's no intimacy, he doesn't go out with me. Our lives are completely different. I'm finding myself wanting more. I want a chance to live and feel wanted. But how do you know it's true feelings or a midlife thing and wondering if the grass is greener? I feel at a loss

Just cause you are married doesn’t mean you can’t have male friends…
Have a sit down with your husband and tell him how you feel. He should still be loving you and wanting you and wanting to go out with you…
I’m sorry this may not be helpful.
That’s not a midlife crisis that’s a marriage crisis. What healthy marriage doesn’t have intimacy, and a husband who doesn’t want to go out in public w his wife? Why is the reason he doesn’t want to go out w you? If you plan a family date, like a day out on the weekend- what’s his reaction?
As for his hobbies- go get your own. Find something you love to do or wanna learn and go get your own hobbies. There, you will naturally make friends.
