[quote=Anonymous]Age 34, married 10 years. Still love DH but we're in the throes of raising two small children now and it's tough to connect in the same way. I wouldn't say I'm "in love" right now, but that's very likely a product of the stress, lack of time for ourselves (even with planned date nights, etc), lack of time for shared interests, lack of focus, and everything else that comes with raising little kids. I think PP that mentioned rolling with the punches and adapting is right. Unless your lives stay significantly the same (similar jobs, no kids, similar location, similar standard of living, etc), there's a lot of adapting and people do change to do that. Sometimes people grow together, sometimes they grow side-by-side, and sometimes they grow apart. The only way to guarantee your relationship stays the same is to not grow/change at all. Otherwise, life happens and it's sort of a crapshoot.[/quote]
