Married or with a longtime s/o or whatever, is anyone else sick of the relationship they're in?
I'm not technically married, but I've been with the same man for 16 years. We live together and have a 7-year-old son. But I am SO BORED with it that it's not funny. Actually, I've BEEN bored with this relationship for years now. But, because of my son, I stay put. I love him, yes. But I haven't been *IN* love with him for some time now.
I don't want lectures, I don't need psychoanalogies or asking me WHY I'm bored with my relationship (I already know the answer to that question) I just wanna talk with other women (or men) that are in the same boat as I am. Women in the same boat that don't really know how to get out. And the reason I'm posting this in alternachicks is because there might be male/male or female/female relationships in the same position I'm in. That and I've been with both men and women and we've discussed gay and lesbian relationships in this forum as well. So all relationships are included here.
I was bored with this relationship long before I lost weight. In case anyone wants to say, "Well now that you've lost weight, maybe you're looking for something else."
I've been wanting something else for a long time now. So I'm just wondering, is there anyone else in the same boat? And how do you keep your sanity?
