I love DH very much, together 12yrs, in our 30's and young kids but I'm bored with him.
His sex drive dwindled after we had kids and he works in the city so is stressed/tired a lot. I'm on my own a fair bit with the kids as a SAHM and lockdown has re-inforced my boredom. I feel restless and desperate for some excitement from the opposite sex.
I've lost all my baby weight after DC2, which was hard work and I'm feeling good in myself for the first time in years. DH knows there is an issue with his sex drive but I'm not seeing him try very hard to a) figure out why b) what he can do to work on it/how I can help support him. I want someone to notice me and I'm missing that spark and sexual attraction you get when you meet someone you like.
I have an intense crush on a guy I know that gets stronger when my relationship isn't great. Not looking to have an affair but I feel stuck as I can't change DH, he has to want to put the effort in to making our relationship better from his side (I feel like I put the effort in from mine). Reading posts on this forum and listening to friends I'm wondering if most relationships die a death at some stage and if they ever come back to life?
