Am I In Love?
Posted: 12-26-05 21:02pm

Am I in love?

I have a little issue here. Actually, a big issue. I tell my wife several times a day that I love her. But my problem is, I don’t feel it anymore. I don’t feel it when I tell her. I’ve always thought that when you love someone, you’ll feel it in both your heart and soul.

We’ve been married 6 months. Actually christmas day was 6 months. We started dating back in july 2003, and when I moved home (6 hours away), in september 2003, she moved with me. She and I lived together for 1 year and 2 months before we got married.

A little background on the two of us. She grew up being dependent on her family for everything. Basically everything she ever wanted, she just asked for and basically gotten. Whereas myself, was always very independent and working for everything i’ve ever gotten. I have a strong interest in cattle, tractors, and computers. She has a huge interest in horses. She wants us to get our own house, whereas i’m content renting the apartment that we’re in.

Now i’m confused. I don’t know if I want this marriage to work out or not. Another think that keeps going through my mind, is that I can see myself with another person or two. I keep wondering what it would be like if I was with so and so.

Thanks,

confused in northern il

Life Is Hard

I know where you are comming from. Honestly life is to short to be unhappy. I have been with my fiance since I was 17 I am now 23. I honestly thought I didnt want to be with him. I thought there was more to life than this. I felt I didnt love him anymore. I thought I would be happy with someone else. We split up for 6 weeks. And that was the hardest 6 weeks of my life, but it was the best thing theat could have happened to us. I realized I truly loved him, that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. And he felt the same way. We are now back together, and are happier than we have ever been in our relationship I felt horrible that I had those thoughts but now I know what I want. If you are not happy than maybe you need to talk with her about it. Spliting up could be the best decision or the worst. Honestly you will know in your heart. Maybe she feels the same way. I am not saying just up and leave her so please dont take it like that. But, I am saying if you feel this way you need to tell her. Talk it out maybe you need time to figure yourself out. I hope all goes well for you and your wife!!!

Thats tough.
I think you still do love her.
I often get like this with my boyfriend.. Were both busy and we find it difficult to talk, even though we spend a lot of time together. I often feel like we're in a rut, or that I don't know him anymore. You can lose a connections quickly. We fix it by having a huge chat, about everything, sometimes I cry, but after I think we both feel better and our love is strong again.. Not that it went anywhere, but you can 'forget.'
Maybe youre just losing the connection with your wife. Have a chat with her about you, your goals, her goals and your lives lately, and whatever else.. That might help things, or you might realize that you just don't like the person that she really is.
