    Want to break up with him, but we live together.
    I have been with my boyfriend for about 3 and 1/2 yrs now. Things were great until we got an apartment together about a year and a half ago. Now we never have sex, and we feel more like roomates than a couple. If/when we do have sex, I feel nothing for him and its more of a chore than pleasure. I've also been wanting to start seeing other men because I have no emotional attraction left for my boyfriend

    I know most people have told me "just move out" but I am trapped because of our lease and I'm not financially stable enough to move out alone right now. Also, I don't have any close friends or family that I could shack up with because I moved far away when I started college.

    I have tried talking about a break before, but it didn't work because we live together. What should I do?

    1) Stop having sex with him. 2) Begin saving money. 3)Wait until your lease is up (you didn't say how long you have left, but I assume it's less than a year). 4) Find a new roommate. 5) Don't move it with boyfriends ever again.

    If you aren't willing to do these things than perhaps you aren't really over him.

    You made your choices, first if you have stopped feeling for him, is this why sex is a chore ?

    And how often is "not having sex"
    But I agree just stop having sex with him if you don't feel anything and he does not care about it.

    As for as the lease, so you move out ? He is living there and will have to pay it so he can keep living there?

    Or you can play the happy "wife" and be a slave to the relationship because you can not find a way to move out

    Of course talking to your room mate honestly has never occurred to you has it?

    If you can split expenses of an apartment with him, you can do so with a female roommate (or 2) elsewhere. Start looking at roommate ads or advertise, and tell him about it. (If you have a 1 bedroom together, I assume he can't get someone to replace you.) You'd be surprised how quickly the end of a lease happens, and you can be prepared.
    I agree that it isn't clear whether he wants sex and you don't or what.
