Husband's career takes off, he makes lots more money then has narcissistic midlife crisis, leaves loving and supportive wife to move in with a somewhat younger woman to live a new life of drama where he spends the next few years trying to kill himself to please her. Boats, cars, trips, second homes....
Abandoned wife, grieves the loss, rebuilds a new life, eventually finds a wonderful new relationship with man her own age, recovering from a similar life of loss, no ego issues, he's not wealthy by most standards, but works hard and together they feather a newer, simpler nest. They go on walks, bike rides, sharing wine and talks by the outdoor fireplace...they are content with a simple life.

Ooooooooo Kaaaaaay!?
Is there a moral to the story?
Is the ex coming back to beg for forgiveness so he can come back?

This just proves that money isn't everything, and that women do better when they go for character and personality, than earning power.
A simple life is more relaxing and conducive to contentment far as I'm concerned...Glad you found that out, and can share it with someone you love...wealth is definitely not necessary for happiness.

This has been the plot of lots of movies over the years, including 1978's "An Unmarried Woman" starring Jill Clayburgh.
If you guys are missing her point, you might want to read her post a little more slowly this time. To the OP, so glad you found your happiness adn moved on! Hope your ex is broke and dejected somewhere!
