Then (because of problems at home) I moved 200 miles away from home and moved in with him and his mum. For the record, if there wasn't problems at home I would have still would have moved there, we were crazy in love. Basically, it's been 6 months. Neither of us can find jobs, we're home ALL day with each other. I still have a few problems from when I was living at home that affect our relationship (low self esteem, depression, anxiety). I am getting professional help and trying really hard but this is also taking it's toll. I guess what I'm asking for is what can I do to help our relationship get back on track? We argue alot, get irritated at each other and don't do much (we spend 24/7 with each other but we don't have anything to do or any money). We can we do to realize why we loved each other in the first place?

If you cant find a job, volunteer somewhere or just go to the library everyday and use their computers - basically anything that gets you out of the house. Exercise is another good option as it occupies your time and makes you feel better about yourself. Most people grate on each other if they are together non stop. Familiarity breeds contempt. Get out and about, improve your life and save your relationship at the same time :)

 spend LESS time together, carry on with your personal activities separately to enable you think about each other and miss each other, it really is that simple regardless of your financial or eployment situation. This will make the both of you anticipate spending more time together instead of dreading it!
