Not physically attracted to my husband anymore.

You have to figure out how pivotal this is in your relationship along with everything else. What are you willing to live with and/or sacrifice? The answer is not the same for everyone.


This would be soul crushing to know if I were your spouse.

Are you sure your crush finds you attractive?

No woman finds their spouse physically attractive after a few years, especially if it’s after a few kids.

Why doesn’t anyone talk to young women about this when they’re romanticizing marriage?

I'm sorry for your experience

Obviously it’s not easy, which is why I kept it inside for years. But I could not fathom living the way we were living for several more decades. I chose to be truthful to myself and to him.

I agree, but what else are we supposed to do if we want a family? Plus I would never have believed it.

Neither of us are spring chickens by any stretch of one’s imagination but we still love each other. Very important is that we both still like sex and with the lights down low the lack of our old physical attraction is a non issue. If you love someone and still enjoy sex just go with that.
