My husband doesn't like life anymore
My husband, 55 years old, is expressing often lately that he doesn't like life anymore the way it is now. We have two kids that have their own lives now, we both work and we go on holiday often, have a good time, I don't get it.
He says it is a gut feeling that there's more to life then this and feels like right now we are waiting to die. I am afraid he will do something strange, although I don't know what. Anybody recognizes this?
Dear Marijke,
I can imagine you don't get it. It sounds like you do enjoyable things like travelling etc. And still your husband is talking about "more to life than this".
It makes me curious, do you know what he means by "more"? More holiday? More fun stuff? Or different than holiday? Different from the things you do now?
Maybe you can talk about that with him.
Warm greetings
