I am a college student attending a Nazarene college. I am catholic and so is my boyfriend. Let me start by saying that i am not a virgin and I have a really big "thing" for "bad boys" but they have shown that they're not good for me, so when i met my boyfriend it was a different type environment. My boyfriend is more religious than i am. He does not believe in premarital sex or anything of that sort, he believes god has to be the center of a relationship in order for that relationship to succeed. He also believes that he will marry me one day. I thought dating someone religious would keep me under control and tame me down because i do have a wild side. We have been together for a little over a year now and the relationship started off great! We could not get enough of each other, we spent all our free time together, even made some of our friends mad because we were always together. He was my best friend and i do love him, but i don't think i am in love with him like he is with me. I'm bored! Our relationship has become predictable and boring. I know everything that is going to happen before it happens. There is no excitement in our relationship. The most "excitement" in our relationship right now are the little arguments we have here and there. We have talked about it multiple times and nothing has been resolved. He is a commuter and I live on campus, we don't see each other often unless it is in class or on vacation/anniversaries or when one of us can find spare time from school work and work work. I've done long distance relationships before and it has never been like this, the distance made us want each other more. In this case, i don't think it is the distance. I'm finding myself constantly thinking about how my life would be like if i were single, if this is what marriage is like, am i trapped in an unhappy relationship? Whenever we see each other, the excitement on my side is not there anymore. I find myself looking for reasons to actually be excited that I am seeing my boyfriend! I find myself taking hours to reply to his texts, not anticipating his phone calls or skype calls, not looking forward to weekends together. I'm starting to feel like maybe a year is enough.. Should i get out?

The longer you continue this. The worst it will get. Just tell him how you feel and hope that he understands it.

I know where you're coming from. My last relationship become very routine like and scripted out, very boring, apart from the days out. I knew mine was running it's course but I wasn't honest with myself, luckily she ended it.

 

It will only get worse, you have to be honest with yourself and him. I don't know if you guys can change anything and make it work?

 

If you end it, do you see yourself regretting it after you have had your fun?
