Have you ever had a long term relationship, and suddenly felt like you were growing apart?

Because i am having this right now. And I know it's normal, but it just feels so boring all the time. We've been doing lots of different stuff together but still.. It's just not how it once was. Im starting to notice too that other guys are interested in me too. Dont get me wrong, i wouldn't cheat, but I do love the attention. Not that my boyfriend not gives me enough attention, because he does.

I would really appreciate to put down what you have done if this has happened to you, or what you think i should do. =)

It also depends on the circumstances of the relationship. My relationship's as strong as ever, but hey I DO check out guys from time to time. My boyfriend checks out other chicks too, but we know that neither could ever replace each other. There were times where I did get bored, but you just gotta keep the spark alive.

Also, since I'm in college now, and everyone knows were dating and I can OPENLY be with my boyfriend at school and in front of our families, we're able to be with each other a lot. PLUS, I've been with my boyfriend for almost 5 years, and I can safely say that I woudln't mind moving in with him. That's like, the step before you getting married - moving in, lol.


Anyways, rethink about why you're with your boyfriend. Think of al the good qualities he has. Find some things you could do together. Maybe it'll rekindle the spark you both had before! I mean, if you are so bored that the "love" feels like it's dying, then maybe it's best to leave the relationship. You don't want to hang onto something that might eventually fall apart, and lose other opportunities. i know quie a bit of people that have dated for a while and I didn't know why they broke up... But things change. Things change AND people change, and sometimes it's best to leave it if nothing seems to be keeping you two together.

But at the same time, yu have to talk to your boyfriend about it. It's great to ask others for advice, But if your boyfriend still feels like you two have something amazing and thinks that the relationship is still strong, tell him how you feel about it. He may not be aware, or maybe you're not aware of how much you mean to him.


Good Luck. :]
