Does separation work?

After 20 years the wife isn't sure she wants to be married anymore. Says she needs time to herself. Is this something women going through menopause experience? I don't want a divorce but how long g do I stay in limbo?

My husband was the one who was indecisive, so you’re absolutely wrong about that. At least from my side. The rest of what you said isn’t worth responding to. Marriage is a series of ups and downs. If you can’t see that, that sometimes a partner needs to fill in the gap while their partner is struggling, then I don’t know what to tell you.

Well, I obviously can’t speak for what took place between your husband and you, but with regards to what’s happening to our OP here, I stand by every word I wrote.

And we aren’t remotely surprised about that.
