Hi! Lately, I’ve been reflecting on my marriage, and I can’t help but notice how much things have changed. It’s not that we don’t care about each other or that love has completely disappeared—it’s more subtle than that. Somewhere along the way, the passion and admiration we once shared seem to have been replaced by routine and familiarity.

I find myself feeling a bit overlooked, like I’ve become part of the background instead of the centerpiece of our story. I miss the days when a single glance could light up the room, when compliments were effortless, and when it felt like I was the most captivating person in his world. Now, it’s all too easy to wonder: do I still have that spark?

It’s not about seeking grand gestures or over-the-top declarations. It’s about the little things—the compliments that make you blush, the moments of appreciation that remind you that you’re seen, admired, and loved for exactly who you are. I crave that feeling again, the one where I know I’m not just a partner, but someone worth celebrating.

I know that part of this journey is about rediscovering myself, reigniting my own confidence and joy. But deep down, I long for reassurance from someone else—a reminder that I’m still vibrant, still desirable, and still capable of capturing admiration. Because no matter how much we believe in our own worth, sometimes it helps to hear it, to feel it, and to know that someone else sees it too.
