Go to counseling. People are so quick to leave the first moment there is hardship.

Have you tried love languages? Maybe its not you don’t love him. Maybe its you don’t feel love from him.

Figure out if you really are first, and why? Is it him ? Is it you? When you can answer those questions then you’ll have to sit down and talk to him. It’s hard but who knows maybe he feels the same and doesn’t know how to say it , hope you guys get a mutual outcome
Tell him and dump him

Relationships go stale. Try spicing it up. Book night in an exotic theme room or something. People give up so easily now a days. The grass isn’t always greener.

You don’t. Love is a choice. You make a choice, every day, to love someone. To do loving things for them, to see them in a loving light, to think of them in a loving way. The butterflies are just a chemical reaction and fade over time.
If you’re making a choice not to love him anymore, be honest; you lied in your vows and don’t want to make the effort.

This happens pretty often. People will let you feel like you’re supposed to stay in a loveless marriage.
Definitely talk about it, you may also find out you just need to shake things up a bit. Things get pretty routine after such a long time. Y’all need to bring the excitement back.

Ask for a separation first. See how that goes. You may realize you still love him. Or you may realize how happy you are without him.

Staying in love is work. It’s a choice to get up everyday and love your spouse. It’s a choice to be happy. Marriages aren’t working anymore because everyone thinks grass is greener on the other side.

Can you live without him? If so then you should sit him down and have a talk. Once you have a talk with him, things will never be the same.
If you like him, don’t divorce.
I’m sure he already knows.

It’s normal to have “highs and lows” in a relationship. Start making him important again. Do things for him. Start dating again. 13 years is a long time to just throw in the towel. You really wanna start all over again? To go from a relationship where you both know each other on a very deep level back to “what’s your favorite color?” It sounds like you may just be bored. I think the most important thing to know is that it’s normal.

Tell him. Seek counseling perhaps. But at the end of the day ppl really just do grow apart. You cannot force yourself to be in love with someone & life is just way too short to stay with someone if you’re truly unhappy. I see a lot of ppl in the comments trying in invalidate what you feel. Maybe you just don’t want to work on the marriage & that’s okay.

You won’t always be “in love”… but if you love him, it’s worth it to keep going. I forgot the saying, but someone had said something about the secret to a long marriage… you will not always be in love, those are the times you have to kick it up and fall back in love. Start over, like you’re dating them again. Go on dates, do things, do different things etc fall back in love. It happens, and it will happen numerous times over a lifetime marriage.

Absolutely don’t give up. Just because it seems hard don’t give up. You have to do things you two did together in the beginning of your relationship. You still have to win your partner over married or not. It makes me so sad to see people make posts like this. You don’t have to love or like your partner all the time it’s like that, but don’t tell me you love someone if you’re willing to divorce someone so quick. 13 years is too long to just give up. Take him on dates and do fun things you two enjoy.

Do you think you could try to rekindle it? Couples counseling and making more one on one time for each other may help. Sometimes relationships just get comfortable and you don’t have that warm feeling anymore, but it doesn’t always mean it’s a lost cause. If that’s off the table for you, then I would just have an open honest conversation with him. Say what you’re feeling, but just try to have tact when you do.
Being in love with someone is a choice. To keep choosing someone is what marriage is about. Don’t use excuses if you’re done, just end it or stick it out.

13 years is a long time to be with someone 
If you whole heatedly despise him then yeah I would just sit down and have a talk with him
But my first suggestion would be marriage counseling try to work through your problems together maybe you can get passed it
But who knows he might feel the same way as you
You never know good luck 
and best wishes for the both of you

These comments are not it. Just tell him you don’t love him anymore people fall out of love all the time. All of you people go to counseling counseling isn’t going to help her if she doesn’t love her husband. Nothing is going to help that. And yes I’m editing my comment for those who are like what are you love someone else if that’s the case then that’s the case we can’t help who we fall in love with but if she falls out of love with her husband then she should tell him not keep dragging it along. It’s not healthy for either of you

It’s important to realize that all long term relationships go through stages. There will be times when you feel like you don’t love someone or aren’t “in love” and those times can pass. Is he a good man? Does he full all your needs, emotional and otherwise? Do you care for him? If yes to all this, it might just be a phase of ebb and flow. Many blessings!

Sometimes it as easy as going out for coffee and the first thing you could ask him if he’s happy in your marriage? That’s what I did and it finally led to a divorce…

So if you’re not in love with him anymore, just tell him and be honest. If it’s something you’re not willing to work on, let him go. People deserve to be happy and to be with someone in love with them

What’s your ultimate goal? Do you want to break up?
You must have fallen for someone else, or he has not been attentive to you. Many factors leads to falling out. Just be honest and discuss it with him.

This is sad, is there someone else you want? I’m seeing more and more of this everyday! I can’t imagine telling my hubby after 13 years cause that’s also how long I’ve been w him that I don’t love him anymore, but if that’s truly how you feel I guess the sooner the better, shoot he might have the same feelings towards you and y’all just staying together for comfort bc you’re used to each other like many others have told me! So I guess just tell him, he might surprise you with the same though so be ready to take what you dish out!

I think the whole being in love thing has taken on a whole different meaning these days. The feeling of being head over heels by this perfect person is not always everlasting. It’s a choice you make when you commit to someone. You choose to love them on hard days just as much as you do on easy days. They may go from the sexiest person in the room to just average because you’ve had them for so long. People nowadays are always on the lookout for who/what makes them feel amazing 100% of the time…and they forget that whoever/whatever does that for them will not do that for them forever. If you have loved this person for years and years and they are still kind and loving and committed to you, don’t take that for granted. It’s so very hard to find. There could be something that could add that little spark you’re looking for. Honesty is the best policy, so a talk is absolutely needed…but don’t be so quick to jump to checking out and being done.

For you to want to tell him your true feelings is awesome , not to many people would do that these days. They would simply just cheat or go on to find someone else they want. You actually wanna talk an tell him that’s awesome big hugs to you ! I look at it I would rather it be 13 years waisted then 30 years waisted

Some of these comments man. She never once said she found someone else. Not all people are cheaters lol. You can be faithful and just not love them anymore. At some point I felt like I didn’t love my husband. We split and got a divorce. Then we eventually got back together got remarried and had more kids.

Love takes work. When you first meet someone you get butterflies and all these new feelings but over time the newness wears off and you have to work at keep my things alive. It’s not always butterflies. Some people mistake those butterflies as love and when they don’t feel that anymore then they don’t think they love them anymore. Sad. Love isn’t a feeling, it’s action and endurance. You make a conscious choice to work at it. I think you should just come out and tell him straight up because he deserves someone who is 100% in it for the long haul.

1st. Get your plans right
-move out
-start divorce papers
2nd. Be honest with him and tell him you’ve fallen out of love with him and would like to move on with your life. Go and never come back. Go find your happiness and stop keeping a string on him.
---->>>Move out and give him the space and freedom to date and explore the world again too. He deserves someone who loves him. Let him find it again. Lots a great women out there who would do anything for a loyal man. <<<<-------

How long have you felt this way? My advice is couples therapy and try to get to the root of the problem because if he’s a good man and you’re just in a rut in your relationship maybe it just needs rekindled. Being with someone isn’t all rainbows and butterflies everyday. It takes work and both people need to be in it. If he’s abusive I’d say make a plan of escape in secret. But If at the end of your journey together you both decide it would be best and really worked at it together then all you have to do is have a honest heartfelt conversation. Start with a letter to get it straight through your head and make TIME to be together privately and have a conversation where you’re not attacking him just letting him know how you are feeling and ask him where he’d like to go from there.

Wow! Some of these comments, icky! I suggest that you tell him immediately. Don’t waste anymore of his time. It may hurt him at first but honesty and being a straight forward person is the only way you can do this with dignity. My grandma use to tell me people don’t fall out of love, if someone says that they have they never really loved that person to begin with.
