How do you know when to let a relationship go?

Ive been seeing a lovely man for 6 months now, we see each other once a week and at weekends. I enjoy his company a lot and enjoy spending time with him and we have a fun sex life. But I dont feel like I am in love with him yet. He is a kind caring man and would do anything for me. He is quite sensitive to my emotions and tries to fix things if he can. Just this weekend I was upset by something he did, which he realised and felt awful about and talked to me about it straight away. He has all these attributes which I respect yet I just dont seem to be bowled over with love.

I dont know whether I should break up with him so that he can be free to find someone who can love him madly as I dont seem to yet, and I would have thought by 6 months I should. I care about him a lot and want the best for him.

AngelofLove agony auntTotally agree with Shandy Pop, is the spark is not there yet, call it day.

Delaying it may hurt him even more as emotions grow for him.

You want the best for him, what about you? You have a life too. If you don't feel wow after 6 months then i doubt if you ever will, but that is my opinion.

I know how you feel because i was with someone like that, he was definatley in love with me but i felt nothing. I just didn't enjoy sex with him at all because i didn't fancy him. We split up after 5 months and he is with someone who loves and cares for him and i am the same. I think you have to be true to yourself and explain to him just how you feel and walk away.

Take care
