 Recent Personal Experience:
I love my ex-girlfriend. Told her i would be with her forever. Big mistake. Slowly, i realized that i just want to experience new people.
I do love her, and she loves me. But im 17, i dont want to spend the rest of my life with her yet. Maybe 3-4 years we cant find anyone better for us then we'll get back together and then ill spend the rest of my life with her.
Last week, i broke it off. Do yourself a favor, let it go. Don't beat yourself up over it like my ex is. You'll be much happier. When you start talking about marriage, it brings in a whole new serious element to the relationship that will tear apart most teen relationships in time.
Sorry, but this is the best way.

Well he is too young to settle down. And I just just have to be blunt, but him saying he's "bored" and needs more "excitement" means he wants to see what else is out there. It doens't mean there's anything wrong with you, but he needs to explore and so do you. There's no reason any 17-year olds should even be considering marriage right now. You're going to need to move on soon, it sounds like the relationship is close to being over.

 Most guys at 17 have wanderlust and want to go out and sow their wild oats. I don't think there's anything you can do to spice up the relationship like he wants it. You can't compromise your morals to try and please him, because in the end, he'll still be bored.
Let him go, grieve the relationship, get it out of your system, and go out and spice up YOUR life for YOUR own benefit. You're pretty young yourself! You might find someone new that might show you what you're missing in life, and this guy who says he's bored will totally miss out!

 Well 17 is very very young especially for a guy. What does he mean by more excitement? Do you know?
