Have I fallen out of love with my boyfriend?

Tagged as: Breaking up, Faded love<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (4 June 2008) 2 Answers - (Newest, 5 June 2008)
A female age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I think I might have fallen out of love with my boyfriend of 3 1/2 years, even though we still get along great and never argue. Our relationship is 'fine' in that sense although I feel I've lost that attraction and romantic feelings towards him. I've actually fallen for another guy and I don't know what to do.

The rational side of me wants to stay with my boyfriend and try and rekindle those feelings I used to have. The other side of me wants to move on and try new things with this new guy who I know really likes me too, and to be honest, I love the flirting and excitement at the possibility of something new.

I am 22, so perhaps its a case of being young and not ready to settle down just yet. Is it normal to have these feelings and does it mean the relationship has reached its limit? Or am I just being stupid/spontaneous and I should stick with the guy who is 'right' for me personality wise even when I don't really fancy him anymore...

I completely agree with Diovan...it is completely normal to have these feelings. I just got out of a 2.5 year relationship after feeling the SAME exact way. We are young and if it isn't working...it is time to move on.

Good luck!

Your feelings, Normal, you've fallen out of love, normal. The relationship has reached it's natural end, normal. Other men attract you, normal.

This relationship is finished. You probably feel quiet protective of him and do not want to hurt him because of the good times you've spent together. Tell him it's over, and you no longer feel the same way, but you value his friendship and don't want to hurt him and your glad for the time you spent together.
