I've hit a plateau point in my newly found relationship with the guy I'm currently dating Mr. " The Truth." Sort of like when you began a new weight loss program and you seem to be losing all this weight and life is good, then all of a sudden you notice you've been at that same weight for a while now. So what's going to happen? Are you going to gain it all back? Will you lose some more? Is this all for now?
That's sort of how I'm feeling these days. Thanks for the stuffed animal, the butter-finger crisp bar you know I like and the flowers, but I haven't seen you in about 4 days now and all we do is sit on the phone breathing in each others ears. I'm also thinking it's because I've been through a lot with guys and I'm zero tolerance for non-sense. There has to be something to not only gain, but keep my interest.
I wanted to write about it in case someone else maybe going through the same things and wanted to share some tips that may help keep the relationship interesting and keep me from giving this guy the boot out of pure boredom. I will say he is a sweet guy and he is very thoughtful which is rare. That's part of the reason I haven't given up. He just works crazy hours right now where he's at work and I'm at home or the other way around. I'm starting to get irritated when he constantly makes comments about doing things he know he can't fulfill.
Like for instance, I might say my neck is stiff or my back hurts a little. He'll then say,"Awww won't me to come rub it?" I'm like yes that would be nice. He's like "I wish I could, but I'm at work." Well what was the point of asking me that then? Ughhh!! This happens a lot with other things and it's starting to look and sound a lot like small talk to me, which I'm definitely no fan of. Don't give me false hope brother!
Well I'm just sharing and hoping something happens and fast to keep me interested. I'm not just one of those women who only likes the idea of being in a relationship, I actually like being in a relationship. I have expressed my feelings to him about this and he said he understands my point. We shall see!
I'd like to know am I being unreasonable or can you see my point? Also, what can you suggest to keep the sparks going in this relationship? It's looking pretty dim hmmm....
Thanks for stopping by and check out this nice article about " What he really means." It really helped me a lot, that's why I'm still dating him as well. http://yahoo.match.com/y/article.aspx?articleid=11997&TrackingID=526103&BannerID=686128

Try new things at least once a week. Go somewhere you wouldn't usually go together. Also sometimes if you spend a couple days apart, it makes you miss them like crazy! Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Promise to surprise each other once a week, even if its just cooking them dinner or taking them on a surprise outing.
Hope this helps

Great pointers Alicex, I will use that. All though I will add things are getting better hopefully it will stay that way. Good to hear from you. The surprise every week is a definite way to keep things exciting.
