Anyone else ever feel tempted to have an affair just to feel wanted again?
Post Body

Lately, I can’t shake this feeling—like, what am I supposed to do when my partner shows zero interest, and I’m left feeling like I’m invisible? I’ve tried talking, being patient, putting in effort, but nothing seems to change.

Has anyone else ever found themselves thinking about finding that connection somewhere else, even if just for the intimacy that’s missing at home? It’s not that I don’t care about my partner; I just need to feel wanted and desired, and right now, it feels like that’s asking too much.

Would love to hear how others have dealt with this feeling—am I alone in this?

Don’t do it. But yes we all crave attention and look outside our relationship if we aren’t getting it. Work on your marriage and let them know that if they won’t work towards progress then you’ll be working towards an exit.

I agree that you are. But a crossroad in your relationship and a crossroad in your integrity are two separate crossroads.

If they’re doing that then you’re allowing it, maybe even participating and provoking it. You’ll need to remove that interaction from your life.
