Thinking of leaving my bf

Hey guys.

I haven't posted anything in a long while, but I'm doing it now because I need to vent because I'm feeling like crap!!

I've been with my partner for 8 years. Almost 3 years ago, we got engaged and shortly after we moved in together. And ever since it has been a roller-coaster, at first it was hard adjusting to "living together" but we always kept trying, we have arguments here and there, but in general we have a good relationship. And here's the problem.. We have a good relationship but not the type I want for the rest of my life. I've enjoyed being by his side throughout these years, I've had great times and memories but I think it's time for me to move on. This breaks my heart so much having to think of myself walking away from someone I love but I think both of us deserve better.

I don't think he feels the same way he once did, I don't feel the love the way I did before. I feel lonely sometimes and don't get me wrong he's a great man but he just doesn't know how to communicate and show his feelings and I've waited too long for a change. My heart aches, but I know I will be okay.
