Drifting Apart

I’m married, but my husband has been distant lately, and it makes me feel like I’m not enough for him. At first, I thought it was just stress from work or something temporary, but as the days turned into weeks, the gap between us only grew wider. Conversations have become brief, almost transactional. When I try to reach out, he either seems distracted or uninterested, as if I’m just another part of his routine rather than the woman he once adored.

We used to laugh together, share our thoughts, and steal little moments of intimacy, but now those moments feel like memories from another life. I lie awake at night, wondering what changed. Is it me? Am I not as exciting or attractive to him anymore? Has he found something—or someone—else to fill the space I used to occupy in his heart?

I try to bring it up, but he brushes it off, saying he’s just tired or has a lot on his mind. But I can’t ignore this growing feeling of emptiness. I miss the way he used to look at me, like I was the only woman in the world. Now, I feel invisible.

I don’t know how to fix this, and I don’t even know if he wants to. The thought of losing him emotionally, even if he’s still physically here, terrifies me. I just want to feel loved again. I just want to feel like I’m enough.
