Question - (4 September 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 4 September 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I don't know if I am with the right guy. Before I met my current partner I was set up on a blind date with Mr. D and we really hit it off although he was just out of a relationship and not looking for anything serious, which was fine with me. We drifted apart and eventually lost all contact with each other.

It was a few months after I met my current partner. A few months ago I was at a party and Mr. D was there and my heart skipped a beat! I have seen him a few times after that party and we have really been getting on like a house on fire, he is the perfect gentleman and I feel relaxed and comfortable around him.

The relationship I am in just now seems to have faltered a little, we argue a lot, annoy each other with unimportant things, don't go out together anymore, etc. I am really confused I don't know where I stand in my current relationship. I don't want to give up on it and regret it but then again i don't want to not give Mr. D and I another go. Please could someone help me?

A female reader, Emilysanswers United Kingdom +, writes (4 September 2008):

Well look, your current boyfriend obviously isn't doing it for you. You don't even say he's great or anything, just that you are not happy with him.

Accept that your current relationship has run its course. Talk to your boyfriend and tell him you are not happy, and want to split up.

Then after a week or two to get your boyfriend out the way, give his stuff back, deal with his feelings for a bit etc etc. Give Mr. D a call.

You say you might regret breaking up with your boyfriend, but if you have slipped into the relationship rut with him so soon then he wasn't the one for you. It normally takes a couple of years to get as bad as you describe. Someone who you can get in a rut with so easily is not worth regretting. The fact your heart skips a beat for someone else and not your boyfriend means you will not regret it.

Yes you can enjoy flying economy and have many happy holidays doing it that way, but if you have the chance to upgrade to first class then don't worry that you'll miss your Thompson flight to Majorca if you do.

Good Luck!! xx
