jenna82 Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 My BF and I are currently in the process of finding our own places. We have lived together for the past 3 years (been together a little over 4 years) and he has decided that it would be best if we find our own places to work on our relationship. I agree our relationship isn't what it was 3 years ago when we decided to live together, but it's not that we are arguing all the time and can't stand to be with one another. His pull is that we have lost the "spark" and the only way to get it back is to go back to where we started-and start dating again without the factor of living together. I'm not sure yet how I feel about the whole thing- I love him and he's been an ideal boyfriend, however I'm also excited to regain that independence and some of the chivalry that was there in the beginning. I just want some non-biased opinions from those who have been in similar situations. Did it help your relationship or hurt it after you moved out?
D-Lish Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 Life isn't Hollywood, happy endings aren't fate or destiny. Relationships are hard work. Taking a break to find your way back to one another isn't a bad idea. Make the best of it!
