Help-I do not know what to do
| Sun, 04-03-2005 - 9:00pm |
I have this boyfriend of 2.5 yrs. When I first went out with him I was attracted to him, but now Im not. this has been for awhile. I lied to myself telling myself I did find my boyfriend attractive.i use to feel guilty for even looking at other guys so I wouldnt. So I thought for awhile something was wrong with me because I did not find anyone attractive. but about a week ago my boyfriend pissed me off so bad that I did not feel guilty looking at other guys. Now I find many other guys-including my boyfriends best friend-attractive but not my boyfriend.
Meanwhile every so often my boyfriend looses his temper. he never hits me. Lately I have been wondering, should I leave my boyfriend? Im afriad to for three reasons 1-im afraid to break his heart and 2-I still love him and 3-I dont really have friends and Im afraid to be alone.
Meanwhile I sort of like my bf's best friend...I do not think I could be with him long term, but I am only 20yrs old and part of me just wants to be single and see where life takes me.
Any advice?

Don't stay with someone you aren't attacted to. That's being dishonest with yourself and with your BF. You're hurting him more by lying about how you feel about him.
He may be upset if you break up with him but he'll get over it. Go out and make new friends. But one word of advice - leave his best friend alone. You can end your own relationship, but don't destroy a friendship along with it.
Hello and welcome to the board... and my advice would be to, don't be afraid to be on your own.
Staying with someone for the sake of not being alone, is a wrong reason.
