Kiss with co-worker stirs marital change
DEAR ABBY: I may be having a midlife crisis. I’m not happy in my marriage and haven’t been for quite some time. I recently kissed a co-worker. It was really hot, heavy and I want more. But I’m a coward. I don’t know how to tell my husband I’m no longer in love with him. — COWARD IN THE SOUTH
DEAR COWARD: Not knowing you, I can’t determine whether you may be having a midlife crisis. However, you definitely do need to talk to your husband, if only to ask if he feels the same emptiness that you do. It would be better for both of you if you tried counseling to see if it’s possible to heal your marriage before you run out the door.
I caution you about involving yourself in a workplace romance while you are feeling this needy. If it doesn’t work out — and most don’t — you could find yourself without a husband and a job.
