The warmth that once filled our home has been replaced by an unspoken coldness. He no longer looks at me the way he used to, and his touch has become rare, almost absent. Conversations that once flowed effortlessly between us now feel forced, as if he\u2019s merely going through the motions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"382\" data-end=\"751\">I try to tell myself it\u2019s just stress, that work is overwhelming him, but deep down, I wonder if there\u2019s something more. I wonder if I\u2019ve changed, if I\u2019ve somehow become less\u2014less interesting, less attractive, less worthy of his attention. When I reach for him at night, he turns away, lost in his own world. When I ask about his day, his answers are short, detached.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"753\" data-end=\"1013\">I miss the way he used to pull me close, the way his eyes would light up when he saw me. I miss feeling like I mattered. Now, I feel like I\u2019m fading into the background of his life, like a piece of furniture he\u2019s grown accustomed to but no longer truly sees.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1015\" data-end=\"1265\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">I don\u2019t know if I should confront him, if I should beg for answers, or if I should silently accept that I\u2019m no longer enough for him. The uncertainty is suffocating, and the loneliness within my marriage is beginning to feel heavier than being alone.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lately, my husband seems distant and uninterested in me.
