W's l think began around 37ish but then ,so did her health problems, all our other problems and big stresses so to this day, l'm still not sure.
l think we could say l was also in the middle of my very own through that time too but at 48ish , it got pretty bad and l believe a yr or so later, mine actually brought on her bd at 39 for her.

Does any of that make sense ha , probably not but thems the numbers.

We'd lost both my parents over the 4yrs prior to bd but although of cause upsetting , l don't think it had anything to do with my mini mlc.
That was about my marriage and life.

Husband was 54 at BD
He was 48 when we were married and all was well.
Was I just a part of an ongoing MLC he's been having?   Bleckkkkk!!!

Dreams are renewable. No matter what our age or condition, there are still untapped possibilities within us and new beauty waiting to be born.

It's no longer all about MLC!  
Pfffffffftttt !

A quote from a recovered MLCer: 
"From my experience if my H had let me go a long time ago, and stop pressuring me, begging, and pleading and just let go I possibly would have experienced my awakening sooner than I did."
