Long term relationship bros, did you ever lose attraction to your bf?
If so, how did you both handle it?
I'm really worried about my current situation. Not sure it can be salvaged. But I realized a few weeks / months ago that my bf isn't attracted to me anymore. We've been together 5 years now.
Guess I've gotten older and balder. And now I don't fit his type. Or just living together and being too familiar makes him lose it for me. Because we're just together too much.
We started couples therapy. There's a lot of therapy talk about creating more space and working on our communication skills to strengthen our bond. Be more mysterious and aloof.
But to me this shit is easy. You either have it or you don't. And I never really struggled in my attraction for him. So I just don't think this is going to work.
Physical wise I can probably lose another 5-7 lbs of fat to really get my abs going. But I'm already pretty fit. Gym 4 days per week. Stronger and fitter than I've ever been. Always trying to get fitter but to me it's not like I'm going to magically reverse age into a twink.
Is this a normal part of the transition from lust and infatuation to companion love like he says?
Am I fucked? I think the situation is not looking good
