Well, I'm not ready to finish therapy (still don't like the word terminate!), but I do think that finally, FINALLY, there does seem to be a pretty good relationship without all the angst of earlier years. And you're very perceptive - the stability of the relationship does help with the attachment issues that the kids' departures are stirring up. That part is not fun. I still get pretty bad separation anxiety. I have a tendency to feel that loved ones who are leaving me are falling off the edge of the earth, never to be seen again. Ugh.
