danny12 Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Is it normal to be in a relationship and sometimes wish you were single again? Is it normal to also think about breaking up with your gf just cause you wanna know what others are like? And when I mean thinking about breaking up I just mean thinking of it but not actually going through with it. I had these thoughts but do I really wanna break up with my girlfriend? Not really...just would like to know what other girls are like sometimes. I keep loyal and do not pursue anyone
evanescentworld Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Not if everything in the relationship is going "as it should be", no. Something is either stale, or just 'not doing it for you'. I suggest that instead of just drifting along and seeing how things go, and staying for the sake of it, you be fair to your GF, break up, and go do what you feel like doing. It's admirable that you won't cheat, but you are cheating her of being with someone who thinks of her as being the only woman they could ever dream of being with, and who they'd die for. you are obviously not that guy (and that's ok) but it's unfair on both of you if you carry on ho-hum....
Assasda Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 hahahaha you dont know what girls are like? How old are you?

You asked the question in a way that would lead me to believe that you might be better off doing it. Instead of asking Is it normal to be attracted to other girls and want to ___________ them? you asked Is it normal to be in a relationship and sometimes wish you were single again? which is a totally different question, and points to a different motive than just passing interest. It might be early symptoms of male GIGS.
Toodaloo Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Its normal to sometimes want to be single when in perfectly happy relationships just as its normal to sometimes want to be in a relationship when you are happy on your own... My Grandparents were married for near 75 years before my Grandfather died. Granny spent much of those 75 years deeply in love with him but still wanting to batter him over the head with her rolling pin or be single/ never married and exploring the world... My mother is pretty much the same. Just because you love someone doesn't mean that you have to like them all the time and spend all your time with them...
central Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 How old are you? How many relationships have you been in previously? If you are young or have had very few relationships, then you probably will break up at some point. Date around then, satisfy your curiosity, and by then you may recognize when someone is worth holding onto for the long term. That time is not now.

Not really...just would like to know what other girls are like sometimes. I keep loyal and do not pursue anyone Thinking about it and obsessing about it are two different things. People think about lots of things all the time. If they are at a low point in a relationship, after an argument or something, sure they might do that. It's kinda like when you were a kid and mad at your parents for not allowing you to do something or for disciplining you. You say "I hope I go blind, they'll be sorry then" Randy in the movie "A Christmas Story". But, if you've been thinking like that for quite some time, more than a couple of weeks, then there is something wrong that needs to be addressed in the relationship. Most of the time, it's probably just a blip on the screen.
