girlfriend trouble

Does anyone know what I should do because I think the feelings for my girlfriend that I Fell inlove with are leaving me, we've been together for about 6 months and I think I feel that I am questioning my feelings for her. The problem is, I really do like her a lot and we have a ton of fun and I really dont want to screw this up ...HELP!

Is your girlfriend an Anthracite w/ Ebony? Does she have navigation?

Or are you talking about a real person? If the latter, I think you posted in the wrong forum!

Communication is the key to any relationship. Be honest and straightforward, but don't turn into a "I don't like it when ... " thing. Don't make her defensive.

try pointing the finger at her and say it was her fault.... Just joking!
Well it sounds like you have become more friends than BF/GF, which happens. just means the emotional level that one carries for their significant other has deminised a little. Doesn't mean you don't care for her, just that at the present time your feeling towards her are no longer the same.
And I agree honesty is the best thing to do.

Happened to me, I told her straight out, she cried, I did not know what to do, so I just got up and walked away.... in retrospect, maybe I should not have done that.....

Delicate situation my friend. On one side you can forget about it and stay with her, chancing the possibility that you may be miserable and your feeling may fade further. On the other side, you could talk to her ... tell her whats going on with you upstairs, she may understand and may feel the same way ... OR ... she could take it badly the situation could get worse.

My advice ... I think everyone goes through a period of this with every relationship, it's the "what if" phase. (explanation: you question your relationship with her, and the feelings, and the possibility of finding someone better) Anyway, what I think you need to do is get away from the situation for a bit. Go on a vacation with some friends and get a change of scenery. A few days without her and you may realize she means more to you than you think, OR you could find out that you really aren't truly happy with the girl ... and probably need to end it. No need reaching for something that was never there.

I wish you goodluck and Happy Holidays ...

You sure it was love and not lust? 6 months is just about the time where the excitement fades, especially if you are with her 24/7.

What is it about the relationship that is making you feel this way? Are you beginning to feel comfortable and beginning to get into a routine? Dude, that's what marriage will be like.

I had those feelings too at one point, but I had to ask myself, am I happier with her than without her, does she know me better than anyone else and still puts up with my shit, do I see myself with her 1,2,3,4,5 years down the road, is she mommy material, do I have fun with her, etc.. or do I think I can do better and start this all over again with someone else?

I still get my peep on now and then, but would I ever leave her for someone else...probably not. That's when you know it's love...and when you fart and hold her head under the covers and she doesn't kick you out or she let's you .

Ok here goes. after what you and txathlete said I think I figured it out. You both gave great advice and this may sound sentimental and stupid, but I am better with your opinions. I think what happened was we both have dated many different people. Her relationships always lasted longer than any of mine did with my ex-girlfriends, which for me this relationship scared me a bit because it was the longest one I've had without any real issues. I think what my feelings are instead of feelings fading, was feeling finally that yeah it may be some routine stuff, but it's a good routine. I enjoy spending time with her, it feels natural and normal. I think it feels like this may be the person I could spend the rest of my life with, and it scared me away. Coming from being someone who didn't really settle down made me ask myself if I was ready to be in a "real" relationship. I can't ignore the signals, my family loves her, my friends dig her, and her family approves of me.
Txathlete , you said to ask myself questions like..can I see myself with her down the road 5 years, is she mommy material, etc. and I looked at her over the weekend and thought about those things...and I was scared at what I found...I am totally happy with her and I was just scared at the fact that this was probably the one and the batchelor devil on my shoulder was speaking to me before and asking if I was crazy and why am I settling down with just one person...and the reason is...is because I love her. We are past the 6 month Lust cut off time...and I finally see that the routine we have isn't feelings fading...but what my life is...and Im finally ok with that...not to mention she loves beer

Thanks guys...

iambgood...Thanks for your advice, ever been in my place?
txathlete....sounds like you're in a good spot too...good luck man. and dude...definitely fart under the covers and stick her head in and she just yells

Yeah, after I went through that situation with my current girl ... I figured out, it wasn't that I could live without her, it was I didn't want to. Sounds like you got yourself a great girl and that you are happy. So congrats on that, I'm glad you figured things out for yourself.
