I’ve been in a relationship with my partner (25F and 27M) for two years now, and I feel like my romantic feelings for him are fading. He’s honestly one of the best people I’ve ever met—kind, caring, generous, funny, the whole package. I know deep down that he’s perfect for me, and I’m not sure I’ll ever find someone better. But despite all that, it feels like my love for him has turned into more of a friendship than anything else, and it’s tearing me apart.
He hasn’t done anything wrong, and that makes me feel even worse. I don’t want to hurt him because he doesn’t deserve it, but I also don’t want to ignore these feelings and pretend everything is okay when it’s not. I feel horrible about the whole situation. Part of me wonders if this is just a phase, but another part of me worries that this is something more permanent. I’m scared of losing someone so wonderful, but I’m also scared of losing myself in a relationship that doesn’t feel right anymore.
Has anyone else been through something like this? How did you handle it? Any advice on what I should do would be really appreciated.
