Where is the love

Morning guys
Just looking for a bit if advice
I have been with my husband for nearly ten years and married for 6.
Two days ago after coming back from holiday he tells me he has fallen out of love with me and can no longer be with me.
How does that happen??
The man is my absolute world and everything revolves around him (perhaps this is part of the reason why it happened)
He travels a lot with work and tells me he would rather be travelling than spending time with me now.
We have agreed to a two week trial to see if we can re connect but does this ever happen? Could he ever love me again?
My world has fallen apart

    I am sorry that this has come as such a shock. Did you have any idea he felt this way, has his behaviour changed recently?

  • He's probably gay.

    Things have changed, he was working away a lot and not thinking about me at all. I felt that he was slipping away but every time I asking he said he was stressed through work and it was all going to be fine
    He says he wants a trial but can you really fall back in love with someone you have known and been with for 10 years?
    It's not the same as a start of a realationship where everything is fresh and new. I don't know how we can rekindle things

    A trial, of 2 weeks. Whose suggestion was that, this sounds like a lot of pressure on you.

    It started being a 6 month trial but we have changed it to two weeks. He has been faking his feelings towards me for the last few weeks and doesn't want to be fake anymore
    I don't know what I can do, I want to fight but you can't make someone love you

    You need some honest answers from him.

    Maybe, what has happened to make him feel this way?

    He says we have just drifted over time. He says its just been happening and he didn't realise it was until it had all gone
