How long have you two been together for? I soooo know how you feel, well of course not entirely, but maybe a similar situation? I have been with my man for almost 5 years (first 2 years were long distance) but we were mates for about 5 years prior to that. It's like everything is so damn good, life is so much more beautiful when your love life is on track; there is a bounce in your step and a gleam in your eye, but sometimes I think we as simple human beings forget that all good things in life take HARD WORK.
I'm really sorry to hear your man doesn't treat you as good anymore - what kinds of things have changed? I thought the same with my man only a few months ago, i was really down and it's all i could think about - why doesn't he do this anymore, why doesn't he make an effort to do that like he used to? I was extreamly nervous in broaching this subject with him because we all know that males like to think they're doing good and any comment on him not usually makes them defensive. But to my utter surprise, he felt terrible and asked me all the ways in which I wasn't getting the attention from him that I needed. So for the past 2 months his effort levels have gone through the roof!
I don't know much about your situation, but maybe we could chat? You are very welcome to send me a private message and maybe we could bounce ideas off each other?
It is sooo hard to let the one you love go, i've been at that stage a few times but something ALWAYS pulls me back and so far it's been the perfect decision to just RELAX and let things ride and I have stopped over-analysing things.
You are the only one that knows how you SHOULD and WANT to be treated. You can't go through life settling for second best my love, because true living is to take as many chances as possible because every path we're on has blind corners. You never know what's around them until you actually go there.
So my advice to you would be to stop thinking about things for a while. I don't know if you're living with him or not? but if you aren't then just let things be and try and aim for a week of no contact with him. You have no reason whatsoever to apologise, you cannot apologise for your feelings. But the thing i'm thinking of is that even tho he is treating you differently, something is pulling you back so that tells me straight away that you are not quite ready to cut yourself off from him yet....
