ok, i am Soo confused.

ive been dating this boy for 2 years now and i love him. but its at the point though where we are so used to each other i dont get like "butterflies" or anything when im with him. i love him though. however my best friend/neighbor who i have known for over 10 years is absoltuly in love with me and told me he knows he always will. i always used to think we sould eventually end up getting married, because i love him and know him so well, but its not passionate. like with my boyfriend. anyways, i dont know what to do. we just started talking again b/c he told me it hurt him too much to be friends w me and so it made me think about it again. whats the right thing to do? i feel bad for him, so i cant tell if i may actually have real feelings for him or if i just feel bad. but i feel like im going against destiny by being w my boyfriend. or im just trying to make it "picture perfect", the way i pictured it ever since i was little.

basically any advice is appreciated

First of all it's NEVER too hard to be friends with someone. And second we always want what we don't have it's okay that you are having these thoughts, we all get curious. As far as your relationship, try new things to get the butterflies back, don't focus so much on passion as trust and childish enjoyment of one another. You will be surprised at the results.
