Well.....I would say if you think there may be something better out there, you should put the two of you on hold so you don't have any "what if"'s down the road. It'd be better for you just to tell him what you're thinking and what you'd prefer to do rather than feel trapped and the blame game starts. But I also need to say that with any relationship (no matter how great), the other person is not gonna make all the bad things go away forever. It's up to you and them to work together so you can work through those bad things in your day. You'll be in for a long road if you expect him to be the remedy for everything, everytime.

But if you want to see what else is out there, then do that because this really is the time for it. But don't burn your bridges in the process because you never know if you'll want to go back. Good luck to you....

Girl I've been there... If it doesn't feel right anymore don't stick it out. Love don't always make you happy, you need a little more than that. You need excitement, something to keep you going and wanting to see him. It's like when you're married you try everything to keep that relationship going, but if you're not happy you need to separate from each other for awhile, not saying break up but just let it breathe for a minute. Miss each other for awhile, then maybe things will pick back up a little, if that doesn't work, let it go. You're young, don't be so quick to settle down, have fun, live your life, you only get to do that once.
Let me know how it goes...Kim
