Surviving menopause

Oh, P&R, I didn't think you were trying to minimize it. But I know it's easy to focus on what a %IOU$@ the woman can be and how unpleasant she can be. But some people, I speak in a generality here, focus solely on that without thinking about what she is going through to make her that way.
 
I had to hide the kitchen knives every night at the end of my 29 year marriage. Ex became a worse alcoholic after daughter suicide. Traded in for a much newer model.

New model has better design for getting thru this common problem.....she apparently solved it by becoming more affectionate.
 
Dang! Maybe that is the answer for the sudden temper tantrum she threw this week! I never suspect that, she is 53. is it time? I tried to get her to talk, said, "Honey, I think we have a problem." She assured me that we did not and that was it!
If there is a male change, I hope to heck I've passed it already, I'll be 70 in September!
 
I just went thru it with my wife. It was about the same time as I developed problems with my hearing.
All and all, from some of the stories i've heard over the years, we did good. My hearings getting better too.

It's not called "change of life" it's "change of wife".
 
Anybody out there whose wife got through menopause without all this drama?

.

My wife was doing chemo at the time. Breast cancer has a way of distracting a couple from such things as the "change".

She just as cute and mean as ever, now...
 
Been there, done that, got the divorce papers to proof it.......

The ex went through it for several years before she went on hormone therapy. It took 2-3 different types to finally find the right combination. Shortly after, she decided that she didn't want to be my wife anymore. She crushed me.

The new wife is 25 years younger than the first wife, so it's not all bad.
