Love help: I don’t think I love my boyfriend anymore. - Help.com

If you don’t want to be with your boyfriend anymore, break up with him. But don’t come between the other guy and his girlfriend, because that would be wrong.

if you don’t love your bf snymore, you need to tell him. Just becsause you don’t want to be single again is no reason to string him along. As for this guy you work with…YOU’RE NOT DOING ANYTHING to find out how he feekls. This guy you’re referring to already has a girlfriend so why jepordise their relationship? Ir’s human nature to want more than you have but, stop and acknowledge what you have,

You’ll have to do it eventually, and the longer you wait the more painful it will be for both of you. Being single is better than being in a loveless relationship.

It might break his heart and you don’t deserve the pain of a break up anymore than he does. But when the love has gone it’s the only right thing to do. He will get over it in time, and he’ll move on.

It’ll be worth going through the pain for a little while to achieve happiness with someone else in the long run. Life is too short to be with somone you don’t love.

All the best.

Didn’t we have this conversation a week or so ago?

Being afraid of hurting him is not a good reason to stay together–he’ll be just as hurt being with someone who doesn’t love him and not knowing what’s wrong. (Who knows? Maybe he’s staying with you so as not to hurt you.)

And being afraid of being “single” is not a god reason either–if you want to be available when the “right” person comes along, you cant be tied to someone who is just taking up your time.

And don’t be thinking that the older guy is going to jump in and fill the void. He’s taken, and he’s at a different plane in his life, and YOU need some time in your life to regroup and figure out what you want in your next relationship.

Don’t be in such a hurry to pair off again–you have PLENTY of time.

Good luck, and be happy.

You have 2 separate but interrelated issues. First, you need to handle the first one, separately, regarding your boyfriend. Make a decision if he’s the one or not for you long term and deal with it. As for the 2nd issue, you’ll have just to wait it out and see where it goes. Good Luck!!

The longer you leave it the more painful it will be.

You are doing both yourself and your boyfriend a favour by ending it asap.

Both your hearts will be broken..but broken hearts heal. Its not the end of the world.

You need to just break up with him! I am sorry, but you might have to break his heart. Just tell him how you feel, dont waste your time dating someone your not into. And just wait, maybe your crush and his girlfriend wont work out. Or just give him some little hints that you might like him a little

if you dont love him then your waisting both yours and his time. you should get out of it…. ya your going to break your heart and ya you dont want to be single but you dont love him so there is no point to dating him anymore

From the replies I see here I’m guessing most of the people are teenagers, with lots of possibilities to find new partners. That’s just not how it works later in life.
flawless_mamm had a good point when she said you always want what you don’t have. I have a boyfriend and we fight a lot over small things. Sometimes (like now) I don’t like him at all. But finding a partner is not about finding someone who is perfect. Newsflash: NOBODY IS PERFECT. He’s not perfect, but neither are you.
Ask any old couple and they will tell you that a relationship takes hard work sometimes, from both partners. The “falling in love”-hormones die down within a few years at most, and then all you have left is caring for someone and being cared for in return. Now, if that is not in your relationship, then go ahead and break it up. But if it is, then thank god on your both bare knees for having found such a great partner in life.

Hey todd, when you’re praying, start by asking forgiveness for calling somebody a hoe. It’s not nice. And technically it’s not even true.
