I used to take it so personally. I’d lie in bed next to him and feel like a stranger. I thought maybe he didn’t find me attractive anymore, or that something was wrong with me. But after lots of painful silence and eventually some honest talks, I realized it wasn’t about me. He was stressed, exhausted, emotionally distant—even a little depressed. Men aren’t always good at opening up about that stuff. It still hurts sometimes, but understanding that it wasn’t all my fault helped me breathe again.
