I married the man of my dreams five years ago. We had a beautiful wedding with all of our closest friends and family in attendance, and it was the happiest day of my life.
My husband was the most romantic man I had ever met. He said all the right things and made me feel like a princess.
He truly adored me and I felt like I was on top of the world. He called me his princess and always made sure I was taken care of.
Fast forward five years, and my fairytale has come crashing down. He still loves me, but he has changed. He no longer calls me his princess, and instead, he refers to me as an ‘old maid’. It’s like he’s given up on our marriage.
I don’t know what happened. We used to be so in love, but now it feels like he doesn’t care. We barely talk and when we do, it’s mostly about mundane things like bills and chores.
He rarely compliments me and when he does, it doesn’t come from his heart.
I don’t understand why things have changed so much. We used to be so happy together, but now it feels like he’s taking me for granted.
I’m not sure if he’s just not in love with me anymore or if there’s something else going on.
I try to talk to him about it, but he just gets defensive and says that I’m overreacting. I want to make things better, but I don’t know how.
I want my husband to love me the way he used to, to treat me like a princess again.
I don’t know what the future holds for us, but I’m determined to fight for our marriage. I’m still in love with him and I know that he still loves me, too.
I just wish he would show it more. I know that if we can just get back to the way things were, then we can be happy again.
I’m not giving up on us, and I’m not giving up on the love we once had. I want to get back to the place where he calls me his princess, and I’m determined to do whatever it takes to get there.
