I was married for 27 years and the truth is the emotional detachment happened
at about the 17 year mark. She was a tough cookie and I could go on and on
about our issues but for us once the emotional detachment happened it was the
end. The last ten years of our marriage were something we did for the kids far
more than for us. I think for all of us having the issues we deal with detachment
is in the back of our minds but for me being with the woman I am with now I
just cant imagine becoming emotionally detached. I hope it all works out for you
and I wish you all the luck in the world.
