Normal long term relationship?

[Magicstarsz]

We have been together 8 years no kids/marriage I'm 26 he is 28. ( Not wanting children yet/ not overly fussed marriage)
We have had lots of downs this past year and quite few bad rows with him loosing his temper ( arguments about him spending more time with me/ him leaving his job) he is now looking for something else.

I Quess it's got me thinking is this my life forever?? I mean I do love him still but feels like maybe I could want more? He dosnt drive and i/ we harldy have any friends in the area we live in, we don't have that much in common and mostly are just in watching TV or on our phones, sometimes he cooks a meal or me for him. I don't dread coming home after work but I don't feel excited either?
Is this all there is?? Is it greener on the other side or do you have to make it work xX

I think long term relationships do become a bit routine but at your young ages you should be having a great time and enjoying your freedom! Do you go on hols/to the theatre/cinema/dinner? It may be its just run its course...?

Sometimes we outgrow people. You got together pretty young. I'd get out now and see what life has to offer, if I were you.

This is not all there is. You have outgrown him and need to realise you are with him out of habit, not love.

Stop wasting your life with a man you have no passion for.

A couple? Each is supposed to be there to make the other one happy. If you don't make each other happy, what's the point!

This definitely isn't all their is to life or normal in a longterm relationship, especially not when you're young and childfree. My dh and I have been together 11+ years, with 2 dc and busy careers. We don't do much that's very exciting anymore because we have no childcare and there isn't much that's exciting that one can do with two small children in tow, but I always look forward to spending time with him. When we were your age, we were having fun, and traveling, and staying up late talking all night, and making fun plans for the future. Even when life gets a bit routine and boring, it shouldn't be quite that mundane. It sounds like maybe you've outgrown each other.
