writes: I love my boyfriend. He is extremely sweet and kind and we have been dating for more than three years. However lately I have become increasingly bored with our relationship and with him. I keep having these crazy thoughts like he's not good-looking enough, or he's not tall enough...and I haven't been feeling passionate about him or us. I know that I love my boyfriend but I can't stop feeling like he's become more of a "friend" than a boyfriend. We've tried breaking up or taking a break a few times now but we always end up back together because we both really love each other. I'm so confused...should I break up with him or stay together?

Well if you have tried breaking up with him then doing it again and again is just cruel.
It could just be that you've hit the 3 year point where people's feelings change.
It's a new stage and you just have to both put the effort in to spice things up and keep the romance.
If you don't think you would be happier without him then stay and work it out.
Good Luck!! xx

There is no perfect relationship match. Happiness is contentment, achieved by having worked at it.
