Part of me wants to salvage it.
Is it best to try to push for simple activities such as watch TV together or let it go? He seems to not care for it.
My question is if we let it go without any more effort does the distance not get just bigger ?
Or should I let it be as is.


Go vacation at a beautiful and affordable town for two weeks to restart your relationship before you abandon it. This and therapy.

Context? How did you get here? What are the problems (as you see them)?

If he’s hitting you, no, don’t try to save the marriage.

If he bought the wrong brand of coconut water three years ago, there may still be hope.

He must be having his needs met elsewhere.
How boring and no way to spend the rest of your life.

Definitely address any existing issues that are important now - - sweeping them under the proverbial rug will only cause them to boil below the surface.

Have you considered marriage counseling?
Do not just be complacent w/the status quo.

Both sides need to put forth some effort at this point.
