I was with my ex for 6 years and during the majority of that relationship I thought I was happy and thought I was in love but nothing compares to this!! We spend as much time as possible together and have already discussed how much we care for one another and how we hope to be together forever etc. To be honest it's amazing! But my only concern is that prior to our relationship we were very independent people and each of us had a lot going on. That is kinda the same but I'm finding myself not wanting to do independent things. All I want to do is spend time with him. I'm forcing myself to keep doing them but no longer enjoying doing hobbies or spending time with friends or family. I just wAnt to see him. I know this is unhealthy. What can I do?

This happens early in relationships - I wouldn't worry ... But just fall out of touch with everyone. As the relationship progresses - you will fall back into normal patterns and he may need more space.

He has got me involved in his other main interests which i now really enjoy. We also hang out with his friends as a couple and his family live at the other end of the country. He does do some independent things but very few in comparison to when we first met. Mainly just something one evening a week. My main hobbie was dancing so he cant really be involved and my friends are single females which makes it more difficult to do group things.
