Does marriage w/ young kids get stale? Live my family and I am blessed. But, everyday it's get everyone ready, work, pickup kids, etc...?

I feel like a robot most days. Wife and I may say a couple words to each other after getting everything done. Then off to sleep and repeat.
Not trying to complain, but it feels wife and I are roommates. Kind of blah relationship.
Anyone experience this?

It can but it doesn't have to. Playing with my kids was never a chore, it was something I looked forward too. You always have to make time for each other or else everything will go south on you. It would be harder if you both work and work at different times. Kids needs to be in bed by nine which should give you plenty of time with your wife. Hey a person should never be to tired for some sex, if your wife is, she's isn't ringing the bell. When sex is as good for the woman as it is for the man, she'll want it just as much a man does. It's not just go to bed crawl on her and away you go, she needs some kissing and loving to get turned on and once you ring that bell, well she won't need that nearly as much as she did before. So I would think the ball is probably in your hands to make her enjoy it that much.

That's the way it is when you have young children. One day soon they'll be grown up, and gone...and you'll wish you could go back to those days again. It's difficult I know but it's all over way too soon.

Didn't banging that older lady at work a couple of months ago spice things up? You're bored again already?

Very normal but you have to work to stay intimate and talk.
The problem is with work, school, raising kids, the parents concentrate so much with the kids, they are strangers when the kids are grown. Date nights, deliberately spending time after the kids go to bed to talk to one another about themselves, not the kids is important.

Do stuff together. Just little things like the park with the kids

Life is like that sometimes, whether you live alone, have a spouse, and whether or not you have kids.
