Confused: relationship with my child's father

I think I'm falling out of love. I didn't think I was at first. But when he asked me. I actually sat back and realized what these feelings were. It's not like I want to, though. You know that feeling and start to see yourself stop caring who he talks to, what he does, why or when or how.... i love him as a person and a father. Always want him to be safe and happy. Nothing bad towards him. Just not "in love."
I dont feel appreciated AT ALL. I wish I could share more, but this is more than enough to share. I need a friend, I need my own identity and I need my own life. I wanna love myself again. Finding new outlets and new adventures ✨️(should I let him try again, or should I walk away?)

If he isn't cheating or doing anything you consider to be immoral I would definitely give him the chance to let you remember why you fell in love in the first place, couples therapy or even counseling from your church (if that applies to you) can help! Sometimes it's a communication issues that you just don't realize that you have or it could be something deeper than that. My husband doesn't realize what he does/says half the time and I have to tell him like hello!! Appreciate me! Men definitely don't process and think the same way we do so we have to try to see things from their perspective as well as them seeing ours. But if effort isn't put in equally on both sides then the relationship just won't be saved.

I’m a strong believer in right person wrong time. A relationship can’t work if YOU aren’t yourself. I would say, find yourself first. However, still keep the door open with him if you feel like he is your person. There’s nothing wrong with stepping away from a relationship to develop you🫶🏾.

I wonder if you're both going through the roommate phase of your relationship

I don't believe in the feeling of being "in love" feelings come and go. There are some days where I love my husband way more than other but regardless the love is there.

He does his part and supports me and I do my part and take care of the house. Our routine is boring and mundane but you can't expect everyday to be exciting. Nor can you expect a man to make you feel appreciated everyday.

It's the small the things my husband does every now and then that makes me feel appreciated and it's often him doing the dishes, folding the clothes or buying food so I don't have to cook.

Also you can find yourself, have your own life and love yourself if you are in the right relationship.

I found/have all of it and that's all with the help of my partner. (So not exactly a reason to leave more of cop out when you don't wanna bother trying)
