Hi! My marriage has been struggling lately, and I can’t help but feel like I’m fading into the background of my own life. Once upon a time, my husband looked at me like I was the most beautiful woman in the room. He used to say he loved everything about me—my smile, my energy, my curves. Now, I feel like I’m just another part of his routine, blending in with the daily grind and the responsibilities that have taken over our once-vibrant connection. I can’t remember the last time I felt truly seen, appreciated, or desired.

I crave that spark, that thrill of knowing I still have it, but it’s not something I can find alone. Lately, I’ve caught myself wondering if there’s still something in me that can turn heads or make someone’s heart skip a beat. I don’t want to lose that part of myself just because my marriage has become a shadow of what it used to be. Deep down, I know I haven’t lost my sense of passion or adventure—it’s still there, waiting for someone to notice.

I need to feel alive again, to know that I can still make someone’s eyes light up. I miss the feeling of being wanted, of knowing that I’m attractive, exciting, and more than just a part of someone’s routine. I want to feel confident, bold, and, yes, desirable. It’s not about leaving my marriage, but about reclaiming a part of myself that seems to have vanished somewhere along the way.

If someone can remind me that I’m still worth noticing, that I’m still captivating in my own right, then maybe, just maybe, I’ll find that spark within me once more—and this time, I won’t let it go.
