If you're in your 40s, 50s, or 60s and your marriage feels... off, you're not alone. This is one of the most common times couples hit a wall. The kids are gone (or almost gone), careers are either peaking or winding down, and suddenly, it's just the two of you in the house again. The silence can be loud.

Many couples describe it the same way: "We're like roommates." "I feel lonely even when we're in the same room." "We don't fight much anymore... but there's no spark either."

This is midlife marriage drift, and it's incredibly common.

Let’s be honest. After decades of doing all the things—raising kids, running a household, maybe juggling a career—marriage can start to feel more like a business partnership than a love story.

You love each other, sure. But where did the playfulness go? The chemistry? The connection?

If you’re a woman over 40 with older kids, you might finally have some breathing room—and that’s the perfect time to give your relationship the attention it deserves.
