He has two sons aged 13 and 17 and my son is 11. I started looking at the relationship in a different light and questioned whether we both wanted the same things out of life. When we first got together we seemed so similar and yet now he's happy watching the football and going to the pub and I want to try new things, go new places and really like my holidays which he's not too bothered about. He's 7 years older than me and don't know if that has anything to do with it.I think I started to question our longer term future and whether for me it was going to be with him. It may sound daft but even though we seemed a perfect match in the beginning, I didn't think we were in the end so I decided the end the relationship - that was a couple of months ago.He's been in touch with me since and still thinks we could be happy but I just somehow don't feel the same. Looking longer term, I could never see us living together or anything which after 4 years of being together I think I should. I think the relationship had gone as far as it could.Has anyone else been in the same situation? Reply to this Question Share |

Just because he's content with his life, doesn't mean that he doesn't have the urge to try new things. Try asking him to get a relative to watch the kids, and go on a trip, just the two of you. He'll change, I promise.
