My partner has just realized after 15 years of being together, that 12 years ago when I cheated on him he fell out of love with me. He stayed in the relationship because it felt safer than leaving. He married me because I’m his best friend and he loves me…but he isn’t in love with me. We’re both working on healing our trauma & attachments…and we have come so far. We have deep love for each other and our relationship excels in 9/10 categories. He is willing to try (and is trying) to feel in love with me (and himself) again, but has no idea where to start. Is falling back in love with someone when that kind of “in love” feeling has been offline for so long even possible? If so, how does one go about this?
