We have been together for 2 and 1/2 years and lately...

Ok, I know that its hard for you to let go of a guy that you’ve been in a relationship with that long. However, take it from me…men rarely change for the better in relationships. If he is behaving this way already, it will only get harder for you. We all have this fantasy about what relationships should be. We want the romantic man that we see in movies, and what’s wrong with that? However, there is no such thing as a perfect man, and finding one like we see in the movies is almost impossible. Honestly, everything you’ve written, I could say about my relationship, except its my husband, and we’ve been together almost six years. I am the sexual one, and he’s the one making excuses not to. Most people ask me if he’s either gay or cheating on me, but its neither. He is obsessed with video games and blows everything off in real life. Is it frustrating? HELL YES!!! However, he doesn’t cancel dates on me, and we spend a lot of time together. He is genuinly a great guy who just has really screwed up priorities. In all honesty, I love my husband, but putting up with someone treating you like you aren’t the most important thing is hard. I have days where I want to march into a lawyer’s office and file for divorce, and the only thing that stops me is our 18th month old son. I don’t want him growing up like I did in a broken home. However, most of the time, I just couldn’t imagine life without my husband. I really love him enough that most days the thought of not being with him forever sends an indescribable pain through my entire body. You should consider everything. If you’re not in love with him, then leave him before you get to a point where you can’t. You should live your life for yourself, and find someone who makes you feel like you are their world. Someone who never leaves you wanting for anything. Like I said, he’s never going to be better than this. Once a man knows that you will put up with his crap, he stops trying to impress you, and becomes who he really is. A man is only as good as he’s going to be the first few months of the relationship, and after that, he is how he is. There are only a few cases where I’ve seen men do a complete 180. My husband has overcome a lot of his problems, but he’s still got a long way to go. What do you think your man is really gonna be like in 5 years? If you don’t think he’s going to start treatint you better, go with another.
