writes: Hi everyone, a fabulous new year to you all. I sincerely need your advice on this one. I and my Boyfriend have been dating for 5years now. We are in love, and we've gotten so fond of each other. But i find it disturbing that he barely shows affection and care towards me, like it used to be earlier on. I've tried in my own little way to put spice back into our relationship, but He_???? doesn't even take cognisance of that. Is it too long a period to date someone? Cos the love is dwindling. What do i do? Pls help. Tnx.

Hey,Five years is quite a length to be dating and a lot of people find that as throughtout the first year passion is strong and constant tht by the 3rd year its started to die down. There are a number of ways to get his attention.We dont honestly know what hes thinking but it could be that he is contimplatin making the relationship offical with a ring if you know what i mean or perhaps he feels the zest is lost (and may i point out by no doings of yourself). Um.. to be honest why not have a romantic evening...Perhaps, cook a nice meal with a candlelit table, Perhaps create a dessert (or buy one) that you can share together like strawberries and chocolate... then have a bath together or just have a laugh. Its about recreating that moment you met the moment the relationship began, another idea could be to go out and have almost like your first date again whether its a romantic walk, or a cinema night this could perhaps put the passion back into the relationship. Hope this helps Mickkiee x

Ok to recap
You are dating 5 years
YOU are in love with him and you believe he is in love with you
He is not affectionate towards you like he used to be
Have you talked to HIM about this and asked HIM?
What does he say
IF he has cooled recently it could be a million things… maybe he’s just more comfortable and secure with you and is not on his best game
Maybe he’s not in love with you but just settling for you since it’s easy after 5 years to be complacent.
Maybe there is someone else and he’s thinking of how to break up with you….
I need way more info….
