Love Turns Into Roommate Status—How Did We Get Here? 😶🌫️
I never thought I’d be the person who fell out of love with their husband, but here I am, nine years and two kids later, feeling more like a roommate than a partner. There’s been a slow build-up of disappointments—him making me feel invisible, the constant emotional distance, and that one unforgettable moment when he disrespected me in front of our kids and family. Since then, it’s like a wall went up inside me.
I tried to talk about it, but every conversation just spun in circles, leaving me feeling like the bad guy. I’ve been scared to rock the boat, so I let things slide, hoping things would magically get better. But nothing changed, and now I’m just numb. The thought of breaking up terrifies me—how will the kids cope? How will I manage on my own, especially with no family nearby and bills piling up?
Has anyone else felt this stuck? I’m reaching out because I feel so alone in this, and maybe someone out there has been through the same thing. How did you find the courage to make a change? 💬
