When couples rediscover each other after the kids leave home

My wife and I are both 52 and after years of focusing on careers and raising kids, we're finally alone together and realizing we don't really know each other anymore. We're trying to reconnect but keep defaulting to logistics and small talk, and I can feel both of us wondering if the love we had is still there or if we're just comfortable strangers sharing a house.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who built a life together are discovering whether their partnership can transform into something deeper, or whether they've grown into incompatible strangers.
