43 yr old male dated a woman for three years she now 45 out of blue needed time space and blamed all on me-tried to figure it out she snapped telling me she don't know what she wants-both have children from previous marriage same age her divorce quite difficult and on going problems with ex husband-she refuses to talk to me as if we had nothing

She could be in a midlife transition, as she is the right age for it.

However, you mention ongoing troubles with her ex. You don't mention what your relationship is like, but she might be at a point where she has 'had it up to here', and wants some time to figure out what to do.

I suggest you let her have her space for a while. In time she may be willing to talk to you about it.
