I'm 26 been my boyfriend 8 years this year, just being in lock down has got me thinking how short life is? ( Not sure I want any children) so no DCs, We got together I just turned 19 I do love him still and enjoy spending time together just sometimes I think and wonder if I could be with someone more suitable? I quess I'm panicking that I could look back on my life and will only have ever been with one long term relationship? I did have few before him but they was nothing long term.
I am mostly the one intiating our sex life and when we do have it it's not very good I have struggled to orgasm him past 6 so months. Also when we are together vdont seem have much talk about just on our phones or watch each other game/ TV shows. I don't want to feel I settled but then don't want to leave when I still love him. Don't know what answer I want really just worried what I'm questioning? X I'm panicking thinking I'm not happy then few days later I am and can look forward to the future. Is this grass is greener?
I also don't have many friends I can relate to about what I'm saying either so thought best to ask on here X

Does he treat you well? Has he ever cheated? Does he respect you? Do you see yourself settling down with him? When you're ill does he take good care of you? Is he holding down a job and earning enough to support you should you choose to have DC? If not does he want to progress at work? Does he have an alcohol or gambling habit? Is he overly close to his parents?

Sex fades. It's his character and how much he loves you that is important.

It sounds like your life is just ticking over and you haven't thought about anything long term that you might want to achieve or do. Address that first. The guy can't support you if you don't have any goals.
