Love but no spark - is this normal?

I know there have been a few threads on this sort of thing but not sure what to do about my situation.

I do love my husband, he is kind,caring, great with our kids and we enjoy each others company but we dont really have sex anymore and to be honest i dont feel the urge to.
I know he is attractive but i just dont fancy him anymore. He is like my best friend. I cant imagine not being with him on the one hand but then on the other wonder is this is it? Am i with the wrong person or is this just what happens in marriages...

Its like i know him inside and out and i find it boring at times. I feel really bad for feeling this too :(

That is quite a list of positives there - kind, caring, enjoy each other etc. There is a lot in that to be thankful for and the boredom thing must be very common in long term relationships. Not saying you should just go on like this indefinately, but just that if you have so many positives, that needs a bit of celebrating in itself.

But you're obviously missing a big thing. Do you get much time together without the kids to do different things/have fun/have sex without worrying if a little person's going to walk in on you any minute? What is your H's view of your relationship?
