Subject : AM I Wrong for Thinking My Husband Was Having a Midlife Crisis When He Was Actually Doing Something Amazing?
Summary: Lately, my husband, Mark, has been distant—secret trips and late nights in his study. I thought it was a midlife crisis, maybe even an affair. Then I found a folder with travel plans, emails about a “Catherine,” and a villa booking in Paris. My heart sank.
When I confronted him, shaking with fear, I expected the worst. But instead, Mark told me he was planning a surprise: a trip to Paris for my art exhibition. Turns out, he’d been working with an art curator, Catherine, to get my old paintings into European galleries.
He’d been quietly gathering my artwork and making all the arrangements, even though I hadn’t painted seriously in years. I felt guilty for suspecting the worst, but was I wrong to think something was off with how distant he was acting?
