I have been with my husband for 5 years we have 2 children and a pretty nice life. The problem is, I really dont feel anything for him. I dont get excited to see him, I dont want to kiss him ( there are days ( and days) when we "forget" to even kiss). I just cant even get excited about anything that has to do with him ( a perfect vacation wouldnt involove him).
I dont know if it is because he is an ass all of the time, or if it is just over...
Is it kind of normal to feel ( or not to feel) this way about your husband?

I can say that this sounds like the thing called the "seven year itch." A lot of people go through times when they feel less than romantic towards their partner. I went through a period of about 7 months without having sex. It wasn't that I didn't love my husband, but more like I wasn't as interested in him as I used to be. Sometimes a good thing is to spend a little more time apart so that you appreciate each other when you do get to be together. People are creatures of habit, and we tend to get into routine that makes us bored. Taking the time and effort to find ways to spice up things can make you a stronger person in or out of your relationship. So many people just give up on relationships because they are not happy. No one wants to be unhappy. Before tossing in the towel, maybe try a couples retreat or some kind of counselling. I wish you luck in whatever you chose to do.
