My husband said he doesn’t love me anymore

We have a 3 year old. Things are difficult as we barely get any time to ourselves.
He said last night that he doesn’t think he loves me anymore and his feelings have changed. But he still cares for me and wants the best for me.

I’m really upset and hurt. I thought things were seemingly okay at the moment as we had been more intimate physically lately, more supportive of each other, things seemed to be better between us than they were during lockdown for example.

Anyway he says he doesn’t want to move out and I don’t have to leave either (generous of him!) as the house is in both our names.

So what on earth shall I do now? He says there’s no one else and I do believe him. He said he thinks we’re incompatible in a lot of ways.

My family live 156 miles away. His parents live round the corner.
I’m not working at the moment as I am waiting for a PIP assessment due to my disability.

Oh OP. I’m so sorry.
If he wants to continue living together, I do wonder what his motives were for telling you this? Does he have form for saying hurtful things or being emotionally manipulative? Very strange.

Ouch. You poor thing. What do you want to do?

@AnneLovesGilbert
I don’t know.

I’d like to try and make things work by going to relationship counselling. But I’m not sure he’ll be so on board with it. I want to try for our son’s sake.
We’ll have to carry on living together regardless as neither of us have the money or position to move alone elsewhere.

Why with only one child do you “barely get any time” to spend with each other?

Hi @Springrolls,
sorry to revive this old post. I hope you are doing ok?
my husband has essentially just told me the same thing. And I’m a bit lost. Do you have any advice please?
