Relationship dilemma; I want to date other guys
I think I’m in a relationship dilemma. I’ve been with my boyfriend for three years now. He’s a really cool guy. A geek, but a cute geek. Anyway, for the past three months, I’ve been having this nagging feeling that I want to date other guys. My boyfriend’s terrific, but I just don’t feel excited by him anymore. I think we’re way too comfortable with each other. Problem is, what if I am making a mistake? I know he won’t take me back if I decide to split from him now. And I know this sounds crazy but I really adore his family. For some reason, I get along really well with his mum and sister. If we split, I wouldn’t be able to visit with them anymore or have Saturday night dinners with them. What would you do if you were in my place?
answer:
This is a tricky one. This could be a typical, the-grass-is-always-greener moment. At some point in a relationship, we all long for the single life again, especially if the relationship has gotten a bit too cosy and habitual. This is about you and him — forget his family, forget other guys that may or may not be out there for you. Focus on the two of you. If you really love him, the answer is to make this relationship work. You can work harder to spice things up and stop taking each other for granted. However, if you are really unhappy with him and you can’t see a solution, breaking up might be for the best. But only you can answer that question. And honey, remember, the grass isn’t always greener on the other side.
