When she told you, was she angry? Was she expecting you to react? In anger? Did you get upset? Perhaps she wasnt getting the reaction that she expected from a BS?


Some other possibilities...

Any stressful happenings in her life currently? Is there a problem at work? With her family? With your family?

Did she lose some weight? Did she improve her appearance? Do you know if she's having an EA/PA?

You say she's in her 40s. Is she in perimenopause? If so, her hormones could be throwing her out of whack?


just some quick ideas...
