It hurts to feel like my husband is no longer interested in me. I used to feel secure in our marriage, knowing that no matter what, we had each other. But lately, that certainty has been slipping away. His eyes don’t linger on me like they used to. His words are shorter, his touch rarer, and the warmth that once filled our home feels distant, like a memory I’m desperately trying to hold onto.
I’ve always believed that love is something you nurture, something you fight for when things get tough. But how do you fight when you feel like the only one still holding on? I’ve tried to spark conversations, plan special moments, remind him of what we used to have, but it’s like I’m reaching for someone who’s already halfway gone. And the worst part? He doesn’t seem to notice how much it’s hurting me.
I’m struggling with feeling valued in our marriage. I wonder if I’ve become too familiar, too ordinary. Maybe I stopped being exciting to him. Maybe I’m just… there. And that thought breaks me more than I can admit.
I don’t know what to do next. Do I talk to him and risk hearing something I’m not ready for? Do I step back and see if he even notices my absence? Or do I start preparing myself for the possibility that the man who once adored me might not feel the same way anymore?
