I don't know what to do with the feelings I'm having. So I thought it might help if I posted here. A few days ago I thought my boyfriend was my soul mate. Now I don't even know if we should be together. It started because the snow here is really bad and we haven't been able to see each other since last week. So we've been talking on the phone. During that time, I had a few conversations with him that made me question whether we should be going out. One was that I realized when it comes to emotional problems and how we deal with them is different. I know it doesn't sound like a big deal, but it just bothered me for some reason.
We are different people. like he's really creative and motivated and I'm not. And it makes me feel bad.
The last conversation I had with him was really boring. I don't know. I didn't want to talk to him. Is this normal for a relationship?
I like him though. Maybe sometimes things happen like that in relationships? I'm not sure, I've never been in one.
Another thing...you guys, do your partners see you for who you are? This is a weird question because I don't know...I think I always need that kind of attention...like I need the person to see me for who I am. I don't know. I guess I should ask him who he think I am...lol.
I guess what I mean is that in our last conversation it didn't feel meaningfult o me or special in any kind of way and it was down right boring. And when I was telling him about really deep things about myself, I didn't feel a connection like how I feel when I come here.I am not going to leave him because of this. I feel like that would be really superficial. I just wonder if relationships are like this. Like maybe partners aren't "super-partners" and click with you 100% of the time.
What do you guys think about this? I would really like some feed back from some experienced people. Don't be shy.
