All of us talked like you at your age

I know you are replying to someone else but I am nearly 50, most of my close friends and co-workers are mid 40s to early 60s. We are all low to middle class. I do not have a single person in my bubble in the last 15 years that has been divorced, one co-worker's wife died in a car accident. Sounds like you either married the wrong woman or changed in a negative way just as she did...... I don't know though.

I live in Shreveport, not any magical area, yet the vast majority of us seem to be happy. Sure people can fake it, but out of these 15-20 couples wife and I know, over the last 10-25 years, they are hiding it very well. I will say, one thing most of us don't do is spend much time on the interent or social media (some, but not a lot of time), wife and I give ourselves a 1 hour limit, maybe that helps, I don't know.

ETA: I have a 24 y/o and 2 in HS, not a new daddy and sweet husband excited about life and just haven't "found out" yet.
