I am very blessed in my marriage I have to admit. I don't feel as if I am "just here". Everyday I never doubt that my husband loves me and "is in love with me". I don't feel he gets lazy and forgets to show it. He does all the time but it's usually me who does the pushing away.
I am in love with him too. Sure it's not that crazy heart beated feeling when we first met, but it's a mature love based on respect, admiration, and content with one another. I feel we both have a real partnership in our life together.
It took a long road to find this happiness and I believe there are sacrafices one has to make to achieve an honest happiness.
In no way am I saying my marriage or relationship is perfect, it's far from it. But I feel we are good for each other and I am grateful.
