Staying together for DC

I've been with DP for 9 years and we have a wonderful DS and house together. We have worked really hard to be in the position where we are now. We get along well, don't really argue but I just don't feel like the relationship is right, I'm really lacking the passion and just feeling rather empty towards it all. If we didn't have DS I probably would have left. It also seems very selfish if I was to split the family apart when there's nothing really wrong with it. Is there such thing as the 9 year itch?! I'm hoping this is a phase which will pass ☹️ Has anyone else felt the same? I'm not even sure of the point in my post, I guess I'm just feeling confused and sad. Our relationship looks and should feel perfect. Instead I just feel like we're coexisting with each other.

I haven’t any words of wisdom but wanted to let you know I’m feeling the same. People tell me I’ve made it, what a perfect family, house, job etc. I feel I agree but on the inside I am
almost screaming but I don’t think it is! I even joked to my husband we are like room mates and he just jokes back. I don’t know what to think. My husband was texting a co-worker last year, nothing physical but it was very flirty and I can’t get past that. X

OP, how is your sex life? If it's not on point, I would try to rekindle it, rather than throwing in the towel.
