This is my marriage. I have not cheated, and neither has my husband as far as I know. But sometimes, you get caught up watching a romantic comedy and you wonder what happened to your relationship and you start to miss those butterflies. And like the article alludes to, maybe that's not realistic but it doesn't mean we don't still want it and may not seek it out. [/quote]

THIS!!!!!!!!! I think this is SO common.

How can this be fixed though?? (not through an affair)[/quote]
Think about what it was like when you first dated. Start acting that way again. Over time we become comfortable with our spouse, and things we used to overlook become things that annoy us. Start thinking like you did when you dated always trying to put your best foot forward, hopefully your spouse will pick up on it because it feels good and start acting in a similar manner. This worked in my marriage, I felt like I couldn't take much more was hoping I could make it until the kids grew up. Acting like I did when we were first together increased our sex life and made us all around happier. There are times when I notice myself sinking back into the comfortable unhappy mode and I refocus on my actions[/quote]
