I have been with my boyfriend for nearly two years now, we have been good friends for nearly 6 years.

We broke up for a month around this time last year but i missed him a lot and after a lot of talking and weighing up what was right we got back together. I don’t expect a perfect relationship, i know there are always ups and downs but at the moment i feel so trapped and my head just feels all over the place. We decided to go travelling and so in a month we are goingon a working visa to Australia, it is the biggest most exciting thing i have done and i am both nervous and excited, but i keep wishing i was going it alone. My boyfriend and i seem to be just friends now, even though neither of us mentions the lack of intimacy between us, but even that friendship is feeling strained, i know it is mostly my fault, but i keep snapping at him and the stuff we used to enjoy together now bore or annoy me. I don’t want to break up for him when we are half way around the world, but i also don’t want to write of our friendship and relationship only to feel like i have made a mistake like last time.

I don’t know what to do. I do love him but i just don’t know if i can be with him forever, i don’t know if putting in extra work now is worth it. I should be excited and happy now, but instead i feel confused, worried and depressed.
