Me and my boyfriend have been together for eight years now. Back a few years ago we used to go out all the time. To the movies, out to dinner, out to play pool, go to the bar, party with friends (responsibly) now currently I am not working. So I am home a lot. I don't know many people any more as over the years my friends have all moved away. Well 99% of them. Now we don't go out at all really. We go shopping every Saturday spending an hour at his friends house before heading home. And we go one other place together _another friends place (a friend of his really) I sit at home all day long and we sit at home once he gets home from work. He goes to poker EVERY Friday though he never wants me to go claiming its too expensive. *its 45.00 for him alone) I've tried to talk to him saying I want to go out with him more and all I get back is "you always want to go out on fridays and thats when i go to poker. if you want to go out go out with your friends your not preventing me from going to poker when i want to" even when my friend comes to visit US (she see's him as a brother and me as a sister) he will leave and go out with his friends.
I've tried to talk to him a few times but I can't seem to get my point across. I can't stand sitting in this stupid house out of town with no car and no license all day long every day. Seeing the same four walls is depressing me, I don't feel as sexually active and bordem is a horrible thing. What can I do?:confused:

Seems like you are in a rut...

Things like this can be real relationship killers if you ask me... Everybody goes through ruts, its what you do to get out of them that counts. It doesn't sound like you are doing much to get out there and are depending on him quite heavily to keep yourself busy. Is there a reason you are not working? Could you look for a new job... volunteer... join clubs or social groups... take up a hobby... join a gym.

I find people are attracted most to people with ambition and drive, and right no it seems you are lacking in this area. Getting out there and being proactive will make him take notice of you again. If not it could lead to more serious relationship problems.

So get busy, life is passing you by!

Good Luck :)

Get a job, a license, and a car, and enjoy your own life. You will feel better about yourself, and have more options than sitting staring at 4 walls.
