Women who feel their husbands no longer need them and wonder what to Do When Your Husband No Longer Needs You.

In long-term couples, it’s not uncommon for partners to get caught up in life. Work, strain in the family, and so on, may all start to take up a significant portion of your or your partner’s time. Furthermore, it is not uncommon for those in couples to face a situation where they unintentionally fall into the mundane of daily life and stop putting the time and effort into interpersonal relations as they used to. However, this does not mean that it’s good for the relationship. While unintentional, this lack of effort may feel disrespectful or lead to a decrease in intimacy or other concerns.

Usually, this can be solved with a conversation. The conversation can start with a statement as simple as, “our relationship means a lot to me, and I would like to spend more quality time together.” From there, you can ask to plan date nights – which are important for the health of long-term couples – put effort into starting more deep, authentic conversations with one another, and trying other new activities as a couple, like playing games built for connection.

If a partner shuts down this conversation or scoffs at the idea of an increase in quality time, that is a sign of disrespect in and of itself, and it is different from the unintentional distance that can sometimes occur. Counseling may be advantageous or even necessary if that is the case.
