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.
