Help? Cold feet... ?
My boyfriend is so amazing. I've never been with someone so perfect and mature... we like doing the same stuff, he's very understanding so we've never had an argument in 6 months, we just talk things through. He fully respects my feelings. He listens when I need to vent. He supports & encourages me. Of course I love & respect him very much. He can roll with whatever craziness I have going on. We genuinely trust each other. We have a great time doing nothing or doing anything we've done.
I seriously have the model relationship for once in my life, which after everything I've been through, I am very grateful.
However!!! There are a couple things.
Sometimes, I think he is my soul mate. But only recently, I've been perhaps coming to some less than enjoyable conclusions...
First, he's serious about our relationship. But when we talk about the future, I don't see it well.. we never make goals as a couple so far. And he doesn't appear to be working towards anything like I'd want my future to be... he says "he's flexible" and basically could make anything work, but I don't tangibly see that. This makes me uneasy. I don't know if I like the type of life he seems to be comfortable with. But, ya know, he says he's flexible, could be wrong, and it's early, so perhaps it's not time to work together towards anything... as a goal oriented person, I'm just uncomfortable not knowing what I'm working towards except by myself.
Another thing. He doesn't really talk about his feelings, and I thought he would eventually be more open, but talking about emotional things with him leaves a lot to be desired. It makes me feel like I don't understand him.
He doesn't like philosophy, he doesn't like debates, and I love philosophy & learning new things and debates...
I wish we had deeper conversations more often.. we talk openly, and we have had deeper conversations, just day to day, I kinda want a lot more than talking about my day and his day and likes & dislikes...
My main complaint to him has been not spending enough time together sometimes, and it doesn't ever get resolved, but that's basically understandable & partially my fault. And I get upset we are both terrible planners, lol, because I would like to make plans, but he makes it hard for me.
We are very different, but that hasn't been bad at all. He's very religious, I'm not, but am interested in religion and spirituality.
Im feeling a bit worried. I don't want to get deep into a serious relationship if I'm doing the wrong thing- although he is a great boyfriend.
