is my long-term relationship just two friends sharing rent now?
Sometimes, I look at my partner and wonder if we’re just two people coexisting. We share a home, bills, and chores, but the spark feels buried under daily routines.
I miss the butterflies and late-night talks. Now, it’s more about who’s picking up groceries or taking out the trash. It’s easy to slip into autopilot and forget why we fell in love in the first place.
I’ve realized that comfort can be a double-edged sword. It’s nice to feel safe, but I don’t want to lose the romance. I’m learning that small gestures—like a random hug or planning a date night—can make a huge difference.
It’s not about grand gestures. Sometimes, just sitting together without distractions or sharing a silly joke can remind us we’re more than just roommates. I’m trying to be more intentional, to bring back the warmth we once had.
If you’re feeling this way too, you’re not alone. Relationships evolve, but with a little effort, we can keep the connection alive.
