Has the spark gone or is the honeymoon period just over?

I've been with my boyfriend for a year and 2 months. I do love him very much but I don't find myself getting as excited to see him as I used to be. I see him pretty much everyday and a few months ago I used to look forward to us meeting up and now it's just a part of my day.

Is this all part of being with somebody longterm or just a phase? I know I've gone through phases where he annoys me but sooner or later I always come back to being absolutely CRAZY about him it's just this time I'm not sure if that'll happen!

Should I be worried?

    The honeymoon period is over. But seeming you said you love him very much still, then you have absolutely nothing to worry about.

    It's just that you've gotten so used to him being in your life, that now he's just a proper part of it.

    Nothing to worry about in the slightest!

    Wishing you all the best for 2010.

    The honeymoon is over lol...welcome back to reality!!

    You're probably in that phase where it seems like a routine to be with someone, doing the same things, hes not trying to impress you anymore because hes got you, so the dates stop etc.

    Make sure you kept some excitement in there. Go out every so ofter, for a meal, cinema, anything where its just you two. But make time where you arent together, like go out with friends a couple of times a week and he can go out with his, so when you do see eachother you have stuff to catch up on!

    Its not gonna be easy if you carry on like this, being around eachother 24/7 but relationships are hard and you have to work at them!! How do you feel about seeing him for the next 40 years? Sorry but if your in this longterm youre gonna have to work at it!

    Start worryin'! In fact, if I were YOU, hon, I'D be absolutely shittin' my-bloody-self right about now- bloody BIG style! Yer SO-CALLED "relationship's" become sod-all more than a humdrum daily routine- I've been there and done that, and take it from ME, (from experience), that's NO bleedin' relationship- that's ****! There's no such thing as the "honeymoon period", hon- that's just fallacy- (an idealistic fairytale, if ya will!) It's all bollocks! I've been with MY girlfriend, Laura for WELL over a year and a half now, (and we've actually LIVED TOGETHER for over a year of that year and a half), and I STILL count down the hours, the minutes, the seconds, and even the nanoseconds 'til we're back together again! I went back down to London, (where I come from), with me dad a few weeks back, and for the record, bein' away from my Laura again THIS time was EVERY BIT as bloody murderous as when I went up to Liverpool without her about a year and a half ago, (just days after we'd become a bleedin' couple)- especially when I was in bed of a night, and I didn't have her there to hold! It was bloody horrible! I mean, don't get me wrong, I was happy to see the old home front and all me old mates again- (made-up, in fact), but I felt lost without my Laura- (the light of my life and my reason for carryin' on!) I was walkin' about like a bloody zombie all the time I was down in London without her and she was so bleedin' far away from me- call me 'pathetic' and 'co-dependent', if ya will, but I couldn't bloody hack it down there, without her AT ALL! My Aunty Olive and Uncle Bob were married for WELL over fifty years, and for the record, (even after all those years together, I've NEVER seen a couple so much in love!) So, I'm sorry to break this to ya, my sweet, but I think ya need to have a SERIOUS look at yer relationship, and maybe even think about callin' it a day with yer current boyfriend, 'cos if yer feelin' this way now, think how yer gonna feel about another six months down the line! Carry this relationship on, havin' said what you've just said, hon, and you ain't bein' fair to him OR yerself! Peace and love! Be lucky! :)

    im guna try to answer this the best i can: ive been with my girlfriend for little over 6 months now, and i see her everyday and everyday i am excited to see her. in another 6 months i could see my self "not getting as excited to see her" but it is because it (Like you said) will be a part of my routine, but inside ill still be really happy to be with her and spending time with her, i just wont get all excited bout it. wow that sounds bad haha. but i wouldnt worry, as long as you still love him and want to be with him, then you have nothin to worry bout

    :)

    Could you talk to him tell him you want a bit more excitement maybe you should make it a point of having days apart to give yourself space so you both appreciate each other when your together

    good luck

    Well ask yourself this...

    Could you live everyday knowing you wont see him? knowing hes not yours?

    When me and my bf fall out or a iget depressed about us getting boring, i just think, i cant live without him.

    we try and do somethings apart, have alone time so we miss eachother. its healthy to spend time apart. keep things fresh.

  • i think it is jst u see each oda everyday nd u get bored of it smetimes, mayb try nt see him so much, den u should get bac to d way it was, good luck, xxx
