His Wife Is Wonderful, But It Dawned On Him A Few Weeks Ago That He’s No Longer In Love With Her

A decade ago, this 34-year-old man met his 33-year-old wife, and they have been married for half of their relationship.
They don’t have kids, which is something they both agreed on, but they do have a collection of cool pets.
They’re independent in a social and financial sense, and they’re successful in their respective careers, which they like.
They have their own set of friends, and they have some friends they share. They have similar hobbies and have even taken up new ones to participate in together.
They basically never argue with one another and only hit one rough patch several years ago, which was based on their bad financial situation. After they resolved their finances, he says their marriage became stronger.
A year and a half ago, his wife started working in different cities located two to four hours away from their house, so she’s mainly home on the weekends and gone for the majority of the week.
They had a conversation about his wife’s unique schedule before she took this job, and he was supportive, as this is her dream job.
His wife’s schedule is temporary, and she will be getting a new role located closer to home soon, so she can go back to living with him full-time.
Anytime his wife is home with him, she’s nothing but sweet and affectionate. She does nearly all of their laundry, cooking, and cleaning.

His wife likes taking care of him, as he’s exhausted when he comes home from work, despite his wife working more than he does.
His wife also generously said he can quit his job soon since her new position will come with a salary increase, and she can easily provide for the two of them.
His wife is wonderful. Actually, she’s the definition of a perfect woman, but for some reason, it dawned on him recently that he’s no longer in love with her right now. Somewhere, somehow, he fell out of love with this incredible woman he’s married to.
“She’s an amazing wife and “mom” to our pets,” he explained. “We have the same preferences “intimacy-wise,” and we are a perfect match there as well; she’s gorgeous.”
“Her family loves me and vice versa. When she’s not home, she video calls me almost every night. She shows affection constantly and tells me that I bring so much joy to her life and that I’m the perfect husband for her.”
“Which breaks my heart every time I almost burst into tears. I want to tell her how I feel but I know she will be so devastated. She also talks so much about our future together and how happy we still will be…”
“I don’t know why I feel like this suddenly [I haven’t] met somebody new or anything like that. I just came to a realization that I’m not in love anymore…I love her so much but maybe more as my best friend. I wish I didn’t feel this way, but I have for a couple of weeks now. Can I fall in love again? What do I tell her, and when? Or shouldn’t I tell her yet?”
