My partner of 3 years is the most attractive person I know, but I’ve started to find them less attractive. I don’t know if they think the same way…

I fell in love with my husband, Sam, in the first few months of our dating. He is one of the most attractive people I’ve ever seen in person or pictures. We have twins, a baby girl and boy, and I thought that as they grew up that they would resemble him in looks, and I couldn’t wait until that day. We have been together for 3 years now, the babies are 2 years old. <br><br>Sam has been cleaning up around the house a lot more lately because he’s been more home. And he’s been getting closer with the kids. He’s also been getting healthier, so he’s been more confident, and is just a grown man, so he doesn’t need any compliments in that regard. <br><br>But I have to admit, I’m not really attracted to him anymore. He’s still very handsome and attractive, but at the end of the day, he’s just the father of my girls (baby girl + baby boy lol)<br><br>I’m not tired of him, but he and I used to be each other’s rocks, each other’s happiness. Now I just feel like he’s just someone who I love and respect and want to be happy. He seems to be doing really well, but I feel like I’m just gazing at him. How do I get over this feeling? How do I get him involved in my life?<br><br>What I believe is that I love my children so much more than Sam. He does the same, so he knows his place. But how do I get him to realise my place in the house? He sometimes even serves me foods without asking me if I eat that, he doesn’t talk to me about work or what he is doing on the weekends or if he’s happy anymore. He only talks to me about the twins and if I know how to soothe them or what toys they can be put in. I want him to talk to me like a person, not just as the father of the household, how do I talk to him about this?<br><br>Thank you for reading. I know this post might be weird.<br><br>TL;DR: Am I being replaced by my kids in my husband’s eyes? How do I get him to talk to me, and not just about them?
