Advice on what to do about my relationship?

Ive been with my boyfriend over 5 years and we fit so well together in the past but as we have grown up weve drifted apart in terms of our beliefs and interests. Our lives are so entwined i coulndt face breaking up with him but i just feel lost around him - hes incredible sweet and a very decent guy but we dont have much to say to eachother other than what weve been up to. we are on completely different wavelengths and he is very resistant about talking over any thing with great depth, he closes down whenever i express emotion - its like being with a robot sometimes! The spark went a long time ago but I dont want to give up on a good thing as I know we worked so well together in the past. i feel frustrated and desperate to be understood, advice would be greatly appreciated, has anyone else had a similar experience to this, and if so what action did you take?

i dealt with something like this, i was in a relationship for 3 years and 8 months, and things just weren't the same. i tried many times to get them to work out and go back to how they were before, but they never did, i was basically in love with our past, and kept hoping things would go back, but they didn't and probably weren't going to.


i ended up cheating on him by kissing another guy, which i know was wrong and shouldn't have done. so we broke up, and im actually happier now with the guy i am with that i cheated with. but looking back i wish i would have just ended the relationship on my own, knowing things weren't the same anymore. my boyfriend at the time was great, really nice and sweet too, just things weren't the same anymore.


so, you need to make yourself happy, and do what you think you should do, if things aren't the same and haven't been for awhile, they probably won't be, and you're just so use to it all that you don't want to end it.


if you're not happy, you should do what will make you happy.Advice on what to do about my relationship?
If you dont make each other happy then you need out, you may think this is a good thing and i guess to think this your thinking of all the good times, but overall its different, maybe you'd suit better friends.





At first you may feel you want him back and vise versa but really when you get out of a relationship you miss the other person cos they were filling that gap inside of you, or if you do love him then you miss him in that way but you should be happy and in love.





All the best :)
I was in a very lonely marriage so I left. Everyone said we were the perfect couple but the feelings had disappeared so there was no point in staying.

meet new people
Hey, the same thing happened with me and my ex. we started dating young, and dated for a very long time. We grew apart, and became very different people. we were good for eachother at the time but not anymore. People grow and they change. It will be exptremely difficult fo you but i think you need to share these feelings with your boyfriend, and possibly take some time apart. If you do this you may realize you really want to be with that person, or you may realize that there are other men out there that are better suited for where you are in your life right now.





It took me about a year to get over my ex. and once i met someone else, it took me a very long time to get used to being with someone else. every relationship is different. and you cant expect the new guy to be the same as the last


but it will be exciting to be in something new! good luck
