I’m struggling in my marriage because my husband seems so uninterested in me. The man who once made me feel like the center of his world now feels like a stranger sharing the same space. I can’t ignore the shift—how his attention seems to be everywhere else but on us. He doesn’t ask about my day, doesn’t notice when I make an effort, and barely offers more than a polite nod when I try to connect with him.
It’s hard not to internalize his indifference. I find myself replaying moments in my head, wondering if I’ve done something to push him away. Did I say the wrong thing? Have I changed in ways he doesn’t like? I’ve tried to be patient, telling myself that maybe it’s work stress or just a rough patch, but the distance feels so personal.
I’ve started to feel like I’m failing in some way. I question my worth as a wife, as a partner. Am I not interesting enough? Attractive enough? Loving enough? These thoughts keep me awake at night, eroding my confidence.
I miss the little things—the way he used to smile when I walked into a room or how he’d reach for my hand without thinking. Now, there’s an emptiness that words can’t fill. I want to fight for us, but it’s hard to fight when it feels like I’m the only one trying. The silence between us grows louder, and I’m left wondering if he even notices the cracks forming in our foundation.
