A good friend of mine met a guy last year and is moving in with him already. Her ex was a total commitment phobeand dumped her as soon as she started to get serious about moving to be with him.
Another friend has just announced she's pregnant and I'm so happy for her. And another friend is getting married this summer.
Yet here I am, 1.5 years in, and the future is not spoken about with my boyfriend. The fact that we don't talk about it, makes me think there's no point in bringing it up- he alludes to one day, as in the future being able to afford an expensive home, and he's thinking of purchasing a big car for possible kids one day, but I suspect he's not a realist and a commitment phobe himself.
I'm scared of starting dating again, it just gets harder and harder, and I've been here so many times before.
But I should also draw inspiration from my friend who has found love, and when it works, it just works and can happen quickly.
Not sure what I want from this post.
Any advice?
