hotbombshell   10 #1 Posted June 16, 2004 I love my partner very much but he depends on me to much. He worships the ground I walk on and is very happy to admit it. He texts me the same text every morning and we speak at 9.30pm for 30 mins. I feel like I'm living groundhog day but when I tell him how I feel he says sorry and gets upset. How can I break this pattern? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
jackthedog   10 #2 Posted June 16, 2004 Isn't the guy in the Army? He probably just misses his loved one and having to speak to him for half an our every evening shouldnt be a chore.  I'm not sure sheffieldforum.co.uk is the best place for all this relationship advice, to be honest...  Have you ever considered going on Trisha?

Agent Orange   11 #5 Posted June 16, 2004 Sounds to me that you are bored with his attention which shouldn't be the case if you really love someone. You should relish the time spent chatting on the phone etc. If I'm wrong and you really do love him then why don't you try and break the pattern by sending him a text before he get's the chance or maybe call him when he's not expecting it etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

When he comes home I take him fishing (which he loves) and take him out doing different things but its hard as he's such a quiet person and doesnt really talk. He is younger than me and maybe this is one of the problems Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Classic Rock   10 #8 Posted June 16, 2004 It seems to me that you are stifled by all this, so you kissed the barman the other night, now feel bad.......but your current relationship isn't suiting you. The fact you are posting your thoughts on here suggests that you are seeking confirmation that things ain't all that rosey.....although the folks on here are more likely to support you than anything else. I see storm clouds ahead....! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Sounds to me like you have different agendas with regards to the relationship and I get the impression that you are not happy cos of this.  My advice would be to do the best for YOU and if that means being selfish then so be it.
