Am I truly going off him, or prefer him as a friend?

Tagged as: Faded love<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (18 June 2012) 3 Answers - (Newest, 19 June 2012)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I have been in a relationship for just over a year now. Things are going well but recently I don't want to meet up with him as often as we used to and I have tightened up on the physical stuff, i.e. kissing him less often. On the other hand, I am still fond of his company and love hanging out with him. He is a great and genuine guy but it seems that the chemistry, or feelings I once had, have faded/less strong. He hasn't noticed any change so mentioned nothing yet, and still feels as strongly as day one. Part of me believes that we moved too quickly, and the other part is slightly unhappy that I asked him out instead of being asked. Am I truly going off him, or prefer him as a friend? or something entirely different....? I am confused, and don't want to break his heart. Please help, thank you.

Steve_S agony auntIf the Spark is no longer there for you - then out of respect you ought to tell him really. As hard as it may be for him, you owe him the honesty he gives you in return.

By continuing to pretend everything is ok will only exacerbate the situation. Its not fair on either of you by prolonging the inevitable.

BondGirl72 agony auntIf he sees you as more than a friend, you are going to break his heart. If you do not feel the chemistry with him anymore, it is unfair to keep stringing him along with him thinking that you are a couple. He will be more hurt down the road if he realizes that just strung him along for months on end than if you would have just told him the truth.
