How do I know when it is time to breakup with someone? My bf of 5 years never makes me feel special or goes...?

out of his way to do anything for me. He will only have sex once or twice a month because he is ';tired';. He never wants to spend quality time with me or talk. All he wants to do on the weekends is drink if he has time off or do something that involves an activity where we never talk. Whenever I try to talk to him about it he brushes it off or tells me he doesnt want to talk. I just feel so empty inside and dont know if it is time to move on or is there anything I can do to try and make it better. How do I know when it is time to breakup with someone?

It sounds as if you have both got stuck in a rut! maybe He is a bit depressed though! Try to get him to open up about his feelings. Tell him that you don't feel appreciated, you miss more frequent sex. Try getting some nice lingerie, cooking a nice meal and seeing if that works. But find out what's going on with him, no matter how hard it is to communicate. I'd cook a nice meal, run a bath for him, massage him, then when he's feeling relaxed try talking to him then. If you try when he is stressed he may close off more! Also people communicate less when they are depressed or stressed out! Good luck hunHow do I know when it is time to breakup with someone?

Well I've been in your position before... and I attempted to talk and talk, but eventually I realized that some men, or guys, for that matter don't communicate very well. Especially when it comes to relationships. So I tried the same thing he did on me... I acted indifferently towards him, I stopped trying so much in the relationship, I stopped worrying about the relationship, and believe it or not, that is what actually got through to him. Once I was no longer acting like the girl that was carrying the relationship, it made him notice. He kept asking me what was wrong, and guess what? At the end of it, he was the one begging to talk it out.... So although, I don't believe in playing games, sometimes its what gets someone to wake up and realize that person beside them should not be taken for granted. Try it out... instead of talking, back off. If he loves you, he will eventually see the change in you, and it might change him to open up. I can tell you that happened to me a year ago, and now we are still together and it is no longer that way. I wish you luck... and if at the end he still doesn't appreciate you... then move on..
