Was dating a man pre lockdown and it was going well. Post lockdown it's not the same and I know if the world were 'normal' I probably wouldn't have stuck with it.
He's seemed less keen than me for a while (which, typically, made me want him even more).
Now it's just 'bla' on both our parts. Saw him last night and it's a bizarre combination of being very comfortable (as we've been together since the end of last year) and super awkward. There's no excitement, no romance and although the chemistry is great, it's not what it was.
I honestly stay in it because there's not much else to do right now. It's someone else to see other than my friends and family, it's companionship and someone to get dinner with on a Saturday night (not to mention the fun grown-up stuff you get to do after dinner...). It's kind of something to get a bit dressed up for after a week of working from home in my pyjamas.
I do care about him deeply too, as most people would with someone they've been seeing 8 months.
I know deep down though that if the world were normal right now, I'd have ended it weeks ago.
Anyone else in a similar situation or have any advice of how I give myself a kick up the backside to pack it in and give up?
At the moment I feel like I'm faking it till I make it!
