writes: I have been in 4 separate relationships since I was 18 (10 years ago), my most current one being 5 years and counting, with a man 19 years my senior. Lately I have been dreaming of being alone, for about a year or so, as I feel I have no idea who I am or what I want because I have always had someone else to think about. This I think is making me resent my boyfriend as I feel trapped and held back. He is confused and hurt as whenever he asks me, I tell him I DO love him, which I truly do. Although I have no urge for sex with him, but find myself attracted to other men... the resentment showing I think???Is it crazy to want this??? I don't want to do the "take a break" rubbish either because that would still leave me feeling in limbo, and would put pressure on and confuse the both of us... yet I can't imagine him not being in my life. I don't know what the hell to do. It is also made a million times harder by the fact that I live with him. I love him but I want the freedom of being able to make a decision for myself and only myself. Is it selfish or does everyone want this at some stage???

you need a break, explain tpo him that you have been in relationships and want to find out who you really are. i'm sure you'll be great on your own and dont get into another relationship for at least a year! good luck.x
