Passion fading, or just more comfortable?

Question

My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and a half, and We were best friends for a year before that. We knew we loved each other pretty early on, and the honeymoon stage was filled with sweet texts and constant words of affirmation.

We have been fighting a lot more often over the last few months, but we always get over it within a day and we still love each other deeply. I guess I just miss the honeymoon days      . I've also always had some insecurities so sometimes I worry that he doesn't love me as much as I love him.

Was your relationship like this once you had been together for a while? Is it normal for things to kind of cool off?

Answer

im literally in the same situation right now hahah hope everything works out!

Answer

My boyfriend and I have been together for a year. It's the same way for us. And I've mentioned to him that people stay together because they never stop doing what they did to get each other. But he doesn't get it.

Answer

It's normal for things to cool off around 2 years. If you haven't I would read 5 love languages. They might help. I know it helped my husband and I when our honeymoon phase fizzled down. I'm loving this part of our relationship even more. We are comfortable with each other and can love each other but are more into our own lives. We do our own thing without worrying that the other feels left out or forgotten. It's feel it's honestly more loving than the honeymoon phase.

Answer

Oh yes. Ive been together with my boyfriend for 6 years 7 months. Hes my high school sweatheart lol. I remember just the first year I felt like you or worse. I got sad about being only with one and only one guy for the rest of my life. Then we would argue and make it worse. Then he would make me fall in love all over again. To this day we are so inlove because we actually fall inlove again lol. It will pass you will see if both put some work into it. Communicate and try to change for the better. A relationship is made of two not only one, so goodluck 🙏. I really hope you guys can work things out.

Answer

I passed through a similar situation. We were fighting a lot for about 6 or 8 months, so both were insecure about our relationship. However there was always a possitive answer when the question "do you still love me" came into the conversation. Finally we solved our main differences and we re still together (5 years now, and counting), but before that we had to spend large time talking each other about our mutual problems. Summarizing, i dont think that your situation means that the relationship is over (or that you dont still love each other), but you both should talk about it and try to solved, if both want it. And remember that, when trying to solve your problems, both of you should have the willing to accept the other's defects (it is amazing when your SO tells you something like "i hate this or that about you, but at the end of the day i realize that i also love your defects").
