He doesn't love me anymore
Edit #2 Should've worded different, boyfriend of 6 years, fiancé of 2 years
Edit: Also just to add, we're only 21, we've been together since we were 15 and are literally growing up together and trying to figure out who we are as people as well as a couple.
My fiancé of 6 years came home from his annual family fishing trip. (Just the guys go).. He was acting funny all day and that night he told me that after 6 years, two kids, and everything else we've been through that he isn't in love with me anymore.. he thinks he's just with me for our kids. We're supposed to be getting married next month..
I can't say I didnt see it coming. I can tell he's been distant. (No he's not cheating. I have access to all his accounts, he works 6 days a week from 7 - 6 at least. He doesn't have the time to cheat.) When I tell you my whole world started crashing down y'all... I really thought it was over.. cause how do i fix that. Thats a him thing. And then he told me something that gave me an idea. He told me he still loved me he just wasn't in love anymore. He didn't feel a connection and honestly its felt like that for me too. We had two kids, moved out and got engaged really fast. We've always put our kids first, we're great parents .. but we forgot to put us up there with our kids. Our relationship is just as important as our children and we felt (or at least I felt) selfish for putting us in front of our kids because my parents always put themselves first. (Excessively, left us every weekend with our grandma for parties that we had to clean up after when we got back and leaving us for date night with no food in the house. To the point where one time my older brother and his wife came over to bring us food ) So I always felt it was a bad thing but putting your relationship first while your kids have fun at grandmas every once in a while is not a bad thing!! In moderation!😂
So. We had a talk and got out a lot of things we were to ashamed or afraid to say out loud. We talked about love languages and what we needed from each other and I think we've both been doing well! And for the first time I felt like he was my best friend again. I asked him to date me. To be my boyfriend. I told him I didn't think I could have sex with him for a while .. he's the only guy Ive ever had sex with and I just can't have sex just to do it. Not after that. Wish us luck you guys. Long lasting relationships have these bad times.. they have the ruts where you feel like theres no excitement and nothing left to learn about the other.. but trust me y'all. Fight for it and if this doesn't work I can confidently say we've done everything we can and we're better off apart. Im not ready to say that yet. Im not ready to stop fighting for what I love as long as he's gonna fight with me.. and so far so good. Lets see how this goes. All I know is we all deserve happiness. And sometimes it takes work.
