@lulululu Jeannie, It is the disease. My husband is the same. He has me as two people. The woman who makes him do all the things he doesn’t want do and the one that is all smiles and hugs…. He will talk about the first one in not always a nice way, and will ask me when the other one is coming back. I have read that sometimes our loved one relates to us as in different time periods of our lives. I think the sweet younger lady is probably from our younger years and the older one is from now. At first this realization really hurt, but I know I can’t take it personally. I think he knows he needs both of us and I am sure your husband does too.
