My husband and I have been married for 11 years this past November and we’ve definitely lost our connection. Life has put us through different hardships, which have us stuck going through the motions. Having kids definitely took a toll on us, too. Over the years he’s become a different person than I married, and unfortunately not for the better. I care about him and his wellbeing, but I’m not attracted to him anymore. Over time he’s neglected me and hasn’t been the support and encouragement I need when things get tough. I’ve been feeling more alone and like a single mother than anything else.

I know what the Bible says, so I’m looking for advice and wisdom beyond that. I can’t tell if I’m supposed to just hang in there and somehow be content, or if this is something out of my control. We’ve had many conversations about how I’m feeling yet things stay the same. I’m lost and discouraged. I really want to do the right thing for my family, but I’m not happy.
