I feel invisible in my marriage these days. It’s like I’m here, moving through our home, sharing the same space, but my presence doesn’t seem to register with my husband. He barely notices me anymore. There’s no spark in his eyes when he looks at me, no small gestures that show I matter to him. It’s as if I’ve become part of the furniture—always there, but unnoticed and unappreciated.
I’ve started questioning my own value. What’s wrong with me? Am I not enough for him anymore? These thoughts creep into my mind at the most unexpected times—while I’m making dinner, folding laundry, or even just sitting alone at night, waiting for him to come home. I wonder if he even thinks about me during his day or if I’ve become an afterthought.
There was a time when he couldn’t keep his hands off me, when his words and actions constantly reassured me that I was loved and cherished. Now, those moments feel like a distant memory, almost as if they belonged to another life entirely. I’ve tried to bring them back—through heartfelt conversations, little surprises, and efforts to reconnect—but nothing seems to work.
It’s heartbreaking to feel so disconnected from someone I’ve shared so much with. I want to believe this is just a phase, that we can find our way back to each other, but I can’t shake the fear that I’m slowly fading from his life—and from myself.
