Your spouse feels more like your roommate. You don't recognize them anymore. Neither of you are the same person you were when you first married. Sitting on the couch together is like snuggling up to a stranger on a plane. Neither of you feels supported, heard, or appreciated. Despite being with each other for years, your communication has worsened. You've both become reactive. You ask yourself, “At what point did we lose touch? Before baby number 2? After the umpteenth job change? When their mom moved in ‘just for a couple of months’ a year ago?” You're craving laughter, love, and connection. You're ready to have your partner back.
