Some issues involving my boyfriend and the romance (or lack thereof) in our relationship. Advice?

Well, we've been dating for almost three years now, and I've noticed over the last year or so we've become more like best friends who touch eachother and less 'lovers'. There's nothing romantic about our relationship, even if I try to make an effort by putting his arm around me or holding hands.


We've talked about it, and we've decided that the lack of connection is starting to drive us away from eachother. He's being distant and I'm becoming needy. But we do still really love eachother.


Does anyone have any advice?


How do you spark romance in a relationship?Some issues involving my boyfriend and the romance (or lack thereof) in our relationship. Advice?
You can't spark a romance if there is nothing to spark. Try and remember what attracted you too each other in the first place. It has only been three years, it is probably just stress from work and family that is coming between the two of you.





When and if the two of you have a night off together try to pop in a movie; make some popcorn; sit on the couch (snuggle) and enjoy each other with no intention of having sex after wards. Also you may try rubbing his shoulders when he gets home from work if you know that he has had a rough day.





If he begins to show you the same attention, maybe surprise you with dinner ready when you get home from work then you guys will be just fine.





I have been married 15 yrs and it is all about give and take. You can't do all the giving or all the taking then it just doesn't work. Communication is also a very big key in making it work, always be honest and open.





Best of luck to you, God Bless.
