Was hoping this situation would pass, but have been emotional for weeks now so think I might need to face things head on
I love my dh but am not sure I'm in love with him and am not attracted to him. If I'm honest, I think the lack of attraction has been there a long time but has been brought screaming to my attention as a mild infatuation I have with a colleague has intensified over recent weeks. Now, I'm never going to act on this. I am usually a confident person but am overcome with anxiety when this man enters the office and can barely remember how to speak. Thankfully we don't currently directly work together.
Have read other threads on similar subjects, advising people to enjoy the crush (what?! This is not fun!)
As for my marriage, my husband would do anything for me, he is a fantastic person, father etc but if I don't fancy him can this come back? He is not stupid and am sure he has noticed how distant I have been.
Was hoping this would resolve but it hasn't. Have drafted this post before and deleted it but I think it's time for some advice. Don't want to tell anyone irl - even writing this makes my situation all too true... have been considering counselling (just for me, not for my poor dh who has done nothing to deserve this) but would have no idea how to source this or if it would even work... help!
