    I was one of those girls who always thought that my problem with a boyfriend was the end of the world... i now know it wasn't. I finally found a guy who is wonderful. He treats me unbelievably, he is set with a good job and knows what he wants in life. I've known him for almost 4 years and we've been dating 8 months living together for 7. We jumped into things really early but have never had problem. He doesn't drive me crazy, we still have those 5 minute kisses with all the passion and more than we had at the begining, but... we are both so busy with life sometimes we forget to have those moments. He works regular 9-5 job, and I work in the medical field so my shift are so random and more often than not nights and evenings. We talk about every thing and he says we are at a nice point between seeing each other too much and seeing each other just enough that sometimes we still miss each other. My problem is, we don't. I'm at work or he is and when we both actually have a free night there is always someone over. We go see a movie and he invites people. I love our friends and I wonder if I'm just over thinking but it seems as though he never wants alone time. Our sex life is AMAZING and so i don't worry he's not interested just don't understand why he never wants to be alone out side the bedroom. Our friends all think we're the perfect couple so maybe i'm just over thinking... any advice??? A guy's point of view would be incredibly helpful aswell. thanks everyone

    Well, have you asked him? It is probably nothing and he's just trying to make a mutual night off more fun by having your friends go along. but if it bothers you, tell him. You say you talk about everything, so this shouldnt be so hard to talk about...

    We did talk....

    ME: are we losing the lust in our relationship?

    HIM: I dont think so... do you?

    ME: i don't know i worry... but thats just my nature... When we're alone and we have the time we seem like were just as in love as we were right at the begining but thats when we have the time... and when its just us and those two things don't happen often.

    ME:...am i just over thinking things

    HIM: I know, but think of it this way.. If we wern't living together, and you got home from work, you would probably just do your own thing etc. When I'm around then it's (I hate to sound like a dick) "you're not paying attention to me".

    Do you understand what I'm saying?

    You did talk but as WFS said above, you should talk about it like you just talked to us. Obviously the lust is still there or you would be having trouble in the bedroom, so just let him know once in a while you want some private time too since it doesn't happen very often. Since you both have different schedules, maybe he thinks actually getting out and even including friends is a good idea, not realizing he is neglecting your personal time. Just be upfront and honest, don't beat around the bush.

    Thanks everyone for your pieces of advice. We sat down last night just the two of us and talked and played video games. Then we took a walk just the two of us. We are fine which is why I wasn't too worried but I needed to hear it from him.This is my first huge relationship and he's 3 years older so sometimes I don't always know if I'm doing it right. Thanks again.
