We met young I was 20 he 21, I know we will have both changed in this time, we have been having frequenct arguments this past few months about general lack of dates/ sex ( usually intiated by me) he spends lot of time in another room we have discussed this and he is listing more and actually coming down to be with me. ( I know just annoying!) Recently I have started having a crush on a guy at work... imagining a life woth him thinking the grass is greener.... I am wondering if we are at this 7 year itch? I want this crush to go away but it's hard when we work together. I still love by boyfriend look forward being with him is this just the itch??

Nope. I'm not sure I want any at all.. (26 in January) I love him it's just I don't understand how can I get this other guy out of my head?? Don't understand it.... I think it's because we have lost the fun and dating side and kind of miss what we used be like. This other guy I'm reminded of all feelings from years ago, I still feel the flutter inside when I see my boyfriend it's just we harldy make much time each other anymore and keep thinking grass could be greener I don't want to leave him I still feel excited by our holidays we could go on and/ dates I just need get this new guy out my mind! Ahhh

There is always a risk when you get together with someone so young that you develop in different directions. The crush may just be a sign that your relationship is coming to an end but like most people, you cling on for dear life as no one likes the fear of an uncertain future. However at your age I would have a good think about what you want and if your partner really does meet your needs and will continue to do so in the future.
