writes: Are there any decent, loyal men out there? I am currently with one and although I am treated well and he would never cheat on me, the relationship lacks passion. we have sex so rarely as he does not have a high sex drive and is more happy to cuddle and spoon etc. I am thinking about leaving, but I have been with my partner for a very long time- in fact since I was in uni. So he is my first serious relationship and I have zero dating experience. So I don't want to leave and find out most of the men out there are cheaters and liars with no morals.

Only you can decide whether to break up with your current boyfriend.
There are some wonderful men out in the world and there are also plenty of jerks. But if you go out there assuming all men are animals, I guarantee you that is all you'll find. There is also no guarantee that you'll meet someone right away and you may have to work through some duds before finding the right one.
I think you need to sort out whether the risk is worth the potential pain as well as reward and look at your attitude towards dating and finding someone new. There are plenty of people who have found true love at your age but I think you need to determine if you are willing to take a chance or settle with what you've got.
Good luck.

If the relationship isn't enough for you, then by all means leave. There is nothing wrong with that, but don't string your boyfriend along because you're afraid of leaving and being strung along by someone else.
This is not about men. It's about you.
