I am seeing a guy who is still very much in the "one of the boys" phase, if his mates arrive when we have plans he includes them, even in a special dinner. After two months the little things he used to do to make me feel special have stopped. We mainly stay at home on the couch but when I see my friends he goes out drinking. Also my attraction for him seems to have waned, little things are putting me off.The other side of the coin is that a long-term friend of mine has reappeared into my life, he is everything I want in a partner, but when I expressed interest when I first met him as a teenager ten years ago he was not ready for a long-term commitment. I told him I still have feelings for him, he said that this was reciprocated but he is afraid to start a relationship with me in case it turns bad and ruins our near perfect friendship. But my feelings for him are growing so I don't know what to do!Is this a case of the grass is always greener... What should I do? Reply to this Question

 You need to break up with your boyfriend, and take a chance. Although there is risk, there is no love like being in love with your best friend. They know all of your insecurities, and interests, and will work around you better. Go for it. If he says he's afraid, go up and kiss him in a way that will blow his socks off. He'll shut up immediately.
