writes: My boyfriend and I have been together just over a year and we are great together. But lately things have been a little dull. He spends a lot of time on the couch he only watches television and zones right out or he plays video games. This happens almost every night. I make suggestions to him for us to go out and spend some time together doing things but he either just shrugs or rejects it outright. I am starting to feel neglected. I also feel like I do a lot in this relationship and I get no appreciation for it. He is quite an affectionate person - by that I mean he cuddles with me and kisses me a lot. But I think there should be more to our relationship than just our bedroom activities. It is getting a little dull and routine. If I bring it up to him he quickly accuses me of whining and complaining. I just want that spark back!

Maybe shake things up. He seems a bit too comfortable with your situation. Start making less time to do things he wants to do, be busy, but invite him along with you--otherwise, let him sit around and be lonely. He'll figure it out.

He's depressed. Talk to him about his problems.
