Something has changed between us, and I don’t know how to fix it. My husband seems uninterested in me, and it’s breaking my confidence.
I can’t pinpoint exactly when it started. It wasn’t a sudden shift, not a single moment where everything fell apart. It was slow, creeping in like a shadow until one day, I realized the warmth between us was gone. The effortless laughter, the affectionate glances, the small gestures of love—vanished, replaced by routine interactions that feel more like obligation than desire.
I try to remind myself that love evolves, that passion fades and deepens in different ways, but this feels different. He’s distant, distracted. When I talk, he barely listens. When I reach for him, he pulls away—not in an obvious, cruel way, but in a way that makes me wonder if he even notices. Nights that were once filled with closeness are now filled with silence. We lie in the same bed, but the space between us feels miles wide.
I used to feel beautiful in his eyes, but now, I feel invisible. I look in the mirror and wonder if I’ve changed, if I’ve somehow become less—less attractive, less interesting, less worthy of his attention. I tell myself not to overthink, not to take it personally, but how can I not?
I miss the way he used to want me. I miss feeling like I was special to him. And the worst part? I don’t know how to bring that back.
