hey im hamish, pretty standard except i dont come with the bullshit everybody else my age does. now thats over heres my problem: my and my gf have bin in a great relationship for 10 months now but from spending too much time together its starting to fade and i dont know how to re-light the spark. we started going out last year on halloween and we got on perfectly. i still remember the time where the only thing on my mind was her and id do anything for her. in december she went to america for 3 months and we spoke every night, and we missed each other undoubtedly. when she got back we spent 4 months barely moving we just lay ther all day and all nite being with each other, having a laugh, getting high every nite, enjoying life and everything. we kept doing that for ages and ages and nothing came in between us we were like a married couple (which everybody always said). anyway we kept like for ages but i think from spending too much time with each other weve taken our relationship for granted and become lazy and selfish. then her moods started. we would be happily sitting like usual and then for like no reason she would go in a massive mood and ignore me the whole nite and this wasnt the cause of any hormones or anything she just kept getting angry at me and if i tried talking to her she would get angrier. when i asked her what was wrong, shed get angrier. if i suggested things to make her happier shed get angrier. if i went near her, yes, she would get angrier. this has been happening for a few months now and i cant bring myself to get mad at her i dont have it in me to hurt her but her moods are hurting me so much but i know that as soon as i bring up the situation ill either hurt her or she will just go in another mood. another thing is she has become alot more clingy. im not trying to be mean i love being with her but recently she keeps asking if i still love her, if iv missed her etc. i do love her in my own way and understanding and i do tell her, but when she asks me its like im forced to tell her and the words that come out are meaningless. but i know if i say anything to her she will probably break down in tears and again...i couldnt hurt her. but all this is slowly making us slightly bitter. i find myself trying to get away from her and to be on my own because its like im having to constantly entertain her. i feel completely trapped. i like being with her but everytime i try my best and one way or another she will end up in a mood now. i want this to stop. i want us to be the happy couple we used to be. i know a balance has to be maintained and right now...its just not. i cant help feeling trapped by her. i thought id post on here for some help because i dont really have anybody i can turn to about this and it troubles me which is strange because i never get troubled. i never seem to get sad either. i havent shed a proper tear since a friend died when i was around 9-10. i dont seem to feel muhc but i remember how strong i felt about her when we started going out and i dont want our relationship to fade so much that its too late to salvage. so please if you have any advice tell me. if you have read this thanks for the effort.
all long term relationships have their ups and downs, points where it seems to fizzle and then hopefully, if your lucky, rekindle.
