I (45M) have been married for 15 years to my wife (45F) and I believe we love each other. We now have one kid. I saw an old message sent by my wife to a friend saying that I am not handsome but I treat her so well. The other person replied that she told the same thing in the past and that she should stop since it is mean. I have mixed feelings since the message is really old but it hurts a lot since I find my wife very pretty and I assumed it was reciprocal. I have a very hot time sleeping now and I keep asking myself if part of our marriage is fake and if there are more of those messages out there?
What is the next step for me? Should I dismiss it and focus on the fact that we love each other or should I share my feelings with my wife?
More details based on the questions in the comments:
- The message was sent early in our relationship when we started dating.
- My wife told me many times during our marriage that she feels connected emotionally and physically. Her behavior shows that.
- I am fit and I have good hygiene 🙂 I don't consider myself handsome in the classic definition.
