Husbands: Did you notice when your wife started menopause?
This is more for the men over 40 I guess. I'm sorry if this isn't the right forum but I need help. Assuming your wife is now into or through menopause, looking back, what were some of the first signs it was starting?
Context: my wife and I have been married a long time, since high school in fact. We've had our share of fights and disagreements, and I'm certainly no angel, so I've deserved a lot of em.
However, even during the rough times I at least knew why we were fighting. No need to get into specifics, most of the time now I just get berated endlessly when fighting and I have no idea what's happening. The other 90% of the time is totally normal.
Lately, it's like my wife has 2 people inside her, one my normally sweet and loving wife, and the other is a demon toddler. She's about at the age where perimenopause could be starting, and im just wondering if that could explain it?
I'd ask the ladies, but since my wife won't acknowledge anything wrong I was hoping some husbands could help me.
- What was the first sign you noticed looking back?
Was it truly insane mood swings?
Bonus question, how long do they last?
