No more "butterflies" around boyfriend..am i out of love?
We've been together 10 mos (in our mid-20s) & I don't feel giddy around him anymore. In the beginning i was always excited & nervous around him. I'm still attracted to him but definitely not as intensely as before..he feels more like a companion that i hang out w/everyday. Is this a bad sign..btw we do spend LOTS of time together so maybe i'm more comfortable w/him?

ok, here are two ways to answer this. First is the scientific way: when you first enter a relationship your body emits endorphins that send pleasure signals to your brain.After a certain period of time, those signals will begin to fade. That's when true companionship sets it.
The second way to look at this is emotionally: when you are around someone so much that you get to know their ins and out there is no more mystery. so the butterflies caused by uncertainty of what will happen next are gone. But the good news is that they are replaced by the feeling of stability. you are comfortable enough with that person to fully be yourself and him, with you. a lot of people mistake this feeling for having fallen out of love with someone and end up ending relationships that are actually truly fantastic. Just be glad that you've gotten to that point with him, and try to do new and exciting things together so you keep the spark

Well, you've probably gotten used to him.
If you two are together, and you feel annoyed at him a lot and want to leave, etc, and have a lot of negative emotions, that might not be a good sign.

I think it's just that you're more comfortable with him. You're past the "honeymoon" stage of the relationship. I don't think it's a bad thing. :)
