Dear Allison:

I don’t know about mid life crises: a quarter mid life crisis, a mid life crisis, and so on. These crises terms may be just a convenient way of thinking about what is going on so not to look at the basics of a situation.

After all, what do we call a crisis in between the quarter  life one and the mid life one… but I digress.

You wrote basically that your motivation to leave was that you wanted  to have  fun. When was the last time you had fun, how long have you lived not having  fun and how did you manage to do that, what kept you going with little or no fun?
