so i'm in a bit of a predicament. i've been married to my husband for three years now, and honestly, i just don't feel the same way about him anymore. we met in college, things were great at first, but somewhere along the way, something changed. i'm not sure if it was the stress from work or the routine we settled into; maybe it's just me evolving as a person, who knows. it feels like we're stuck on autopilot with no exit strategy.

i find myself questioning whether i should be honest with him about how i've been feeling. part of me thinks it's better to keep quiet to not hurt him, but another part can't help but wonder if that would be fair to either of us. i miss that spark we used to have and can't decide if it's worth trying to reignite or if letting go is the right path.

he's a good guy, don't get me wrong (kindhearted and supportive!!) but i can't shake this overwhelming sense of disconnection between us. the chemistry that once glued us together now seems more like an obligation than genuine affection;

i've even considered talking to some friends about it yet fear they'll judge me for having these thoughts. society paints marriage as this unbreakable vow full of eternal bliss, when in reality it's more complex...

it's scary admitting all this out loud (or typing it out) because there's always that lingering worry: what if i'm making too big a deal out of temporary feelings? however deep down inside i know there needs addressing before resentment builds further.
