Why do men stop being romantic?

Why Do Men — Understanding what men do.

See if this sounds familiar…

It usually starts small. The flowers that once appeared for no reason stop coming. The text in the middle of the afternoon that used to say nothing more than I was thinking about you becomes a grocery item or a silent confirmation. You look across the kitchen counter and realize you have become partners in logistics rather than partners in desire. You are left searching why is my husband not romantic anymore or why do men stop planning dates, wondering when the deliberate pursuit turned into a quiet maintenance routine.
