Just that really. Does anyone experience this. We have been together for 3 years mid twenties with dc. I just cant look at dc in a sexual/attractive light anymore. When he kisses me holds me i get nothing. I know butterflies are silly honeymoon stage things but it literally does nothing for me. I love him but it feels like how I love a family member. I enjoy his company and love doing things together. But since dc has come along the role and way I view him in is different. I jist dont understand how to feel attracted to someone who I parent with?
I yearn for those feelings again and I feel like im turning into a rock. Is this just how it is being a 24/7 sahm or being in a long term relationship. I dont want to get rid of dp as I love the comfortability and family unit we have. I love spending time with him and sharing hobbies. My family member has a partner but goes off and sees people behind his back. I know its cheating and I dont think its right but im starting to understand after 5 children why she is doing it. She still wants to feel something but she doesnt want to leave her partner. Its incredibly selfish and Im not saying I would follow in her shoes but I get it....
Why cant I just be happy with what I have! I used to date around and wish for a long term partner. Now i have one he feels like a family member rather than a boyfriend and I miss dating.
