Question - (23 February 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 24 February 2009)
A female United States age 51-59, *amurai girl writes:

...or is it something else?

I'm in a relationship with a really great guy - treats me like gold. Recently, we've been having more downs than ups (all because of my reactions to things I've learned about him that aren't horrible by any stretch of the imagination) but it's affected me. When we are apart, I miss him, but not terribly. When we are together, I want to be at my own home. I don't enjoy the sex we have (it started off amazingly - now it's just painful). I just feel ambivalent and I've run out of things to say to him.

The more I've learned about him, those same good things on the other side of the coin are things I don't like, and the more I've turned off. That makes me sad because I do care deeply about him. It's only been 5 months, so I'm not sure if I'm trying to fit a square peg in a round hole, or if there just isn't enough there. He doesn't feel this way at all.

I'm scared and sad. Do I give it time? When it's good it's great, but when it's not...Please advise.

kellyxxx agony auntI would give it time if you still feel like this in a month or so then its time to end it. If you truly are in love then you wouldn't be questioning yourself! X
