[quote=Anonymous]OP, it sounds like you are feeling bored.

Which makes sense and is totally understandable.

I think when we are dating as young women, a lot of our excitement comes from that. Think about it. From talking to gfs about romantic prospects, to going out hoping to be notice by an attractive guy, to going on the actual dates.

Now you are married and all of that is gone.

I completely get that you want your DH to step in and give you something to be excited about now and then. By planning something interesting and taking you out.

Sadly most men are not willing participants in that.

However, that doesn't mean that you are powerless to have some oomph in your life.

Have you tried incorporating something interesting in your life and possibly inviting DH along? If he is not interested you can do it alone.

I have found personally that I am happier in my marriage when I have something fun to look forward to. I try to make that happen with my DH, but if for some reason it's not possible, I go it alone.

For me that looks like taking a German class, going to see new independent movies, etc. Obviously your own interests will look different.

I hope that helps! Good luck OP. [/quote]
