i do have a boyfriend for years he is a business man and a very busy person, he is older than me, so much! older than me!! we're leaving together, at first year i'm so happy to be with him although we're often having trouble. i'm kinda type of jealousy person but sometimes my doubt about him was exactly what he did. its weird but i think i can't live without him i love him so much, more than he think. i feel so sad every time we're having miss understanding. so i think it is just happy at first ):

It is our faults lots of times that we are not happy for the long run. Sometimes we let our minds take over and feel like the other person doesn't feel as good about us as they did and so on and so forth. If you are jealous, sometimes that will cause bad feelings that you will pass on to the other and that hurts the happiness. Also, the new does wear off, but it is difficult to get to know all of each others ways and accept them. Love is hard work. You have to make up your mind you love the person unconditionally whether there are some things or ways you'd rather they not be. Then again, some people commit themselves to someone before they have realized who or what the person is really like and you don't know if you can handle all of the differences or not. It is not easy. It hurts in love and sometimes it hurts...... I wish your relationship the best. I hope everything works out and you are very happy.

The age gap makes no difference if you are comfortable with it. If you and him have the same things in common, and if you like his friends and he likes yours and everything works out great when you are all mixing together for entertainment. If you think age is an issue, it may end up becoming a bigger issue for you and you may find you are not so happy with it if he does not enjoy doing the things that you want to do with you friends. You just have to make a decision and see if it is all worth it to you to give up part of your younger life to live a different life that you would not have lived until later in your life with a younger person. Hope everything works out and you will be happy whatever you decide to choose.

were so comfortable with each other, also have the same thing in common, i like him, i like his other friends but his other friends i don't care because sometimes he had a friend but so egoism some thing like that, i am happy with him, he said he is too, but some times i think he just saying that to me for me to feel comfortable about it.. i still want everything to works out but it seems i'm just the one hoping for that, can i ask you for something ? what do i need to make him love to me more?

thanks for that, maybe i should be openminded in everything, he and i leaving together i guess that just love is happy at first, all the excitement are there but when the time goes by, things my change, people change,, i don't know if i am right.. you said that love is hard work maybe being in love is not so easy, & also i am in the situation that i am younger that him.. the age gap but i don't care about it..

Sometimes it is just the expectation... sometimes you have to accep he things he couldnt do for you... being in relationship is so complicated but even though theres a lot of fight or whatever drama you guys are having..COMMUNICATION is the best TOOL let him know what you want and make sure you listen to him as well.. Cheating is not good I hope he wont do it again.. or sometimes karma has its own way to get to you.. let him how you feel.. and maybe sometimes your thinking hes doing it again even tho hes NOT!!

(ACCEPT The things he couldnt do) sorry about the spelling hihi.. anyway just to answer your question I dont think relationship is only happy during the fresh time of relationship.. Ive been married for almost five years now.. and I am more happy now.. compare to the first year of our relationship coz we always fight before..glad we rarely fight now :)

Relationship is definitely so much happier at first. I don't know if it's just me but I have come to realize that from my experiences with my partners before or maybe we're just weren't for each other. Of course first times always bring excitement and so much expectations, so much flattery. But that doesn't mean I am a hater, I still believe in love but you really have to sort out who's who for you. Don't instantly believe in what you feel, sometimes emotions are deceptive you have to be cautious. At the moment just enjoy the good feeling.haha!;

It's one of the issues that we meet along the way. When we feel that our partner has changed over time that is the moment we feel not secure in that relationship. It's kinda frustrating you know but whatever happens just let it happen. You really can't control things, don't allow yourself to be convinced that he is the one for you. I hate that, I have few women friends that say that their first love should be the last. What?? That's not realistic though it's possible but little chance. So you're going to do everything for him to stay even though he doesn't love you anymore, come on! That's desperation and where's that respect for yourself? Men wouldn't even respect you anymore. So many opportunities out there and do have trust. That someone will come at the right time, so now just let go of everything that confuses you, if it's not for you then move on to another chapter.:)

your absolutely right, at first all excitement are their but when things go by long, theres a changes, theres a lot of changes that sometimes make me so curios about that, i have doubt if he still love me or not.. & also i'm still hoping and i don't give up in everything, i have to face everything in life.. life goes on no matter what happen.. for you don't give up, theres one people who really make u love until last.. don't find it.. right time,right guy, will destiny for you..

No. There are couples who live happily thereafter. I think for some who experience unhappiness is because most people think that their partner will change once they get married/live together. The best thing to is to accept your partner weakness, strength and learn to live with it. In every marriage there is argument and misunderstanding but that should not be the cause of unhappiness but couples should work towards eliminating what is causing the problem.

Try but only if your partner is willing to accept your weakness too and live with it and the problem that you are having is just misunderstanding or other not so serious problems.

i guess ur right i have to accept what his weakness, strength and i learn to live with it, but sometimes its really hard when things go wrong ): i think i have to face it in every challenge that comes.

Relationships are fun and exciting in the beginning, aren't they? Everything is so new and the uncertainty and surprises make things so interesting. My husband and I have settled into a comfortable happy right now though, and we still miss each other when the other is away.

Hi rozilynf: It's so sad that you have to face these problems. However I don't think that things must be like that. I mean, it's up to a couple if they keep romance. Relationships of course have their ups and downs because when you are living with someone you have to deal with communication problems and the normal problems every family has. However if both people work together a couple can keep the romance and improve it actually. ALVARO

its up to the couple but why if the partner didn't participate, to make things go right? i don't think its a normal problem.. i know that in a relationship theirs up and down.. i must admit and accept him, but sometimes i have doubt if my sacrifice are worth it..

relationships are happy always happy at first. as time goes by, the relationship could either be happier or not. it's up to the couple to work hard on it and make it last.

I agree that a relationship is happy at first. I am in a relationship now and it's been a year and I don't want to be in it anymore. At first it was happy and now a NIGHTMARE! my boyfriend is very jelous and don't want to work at all. I moved him in and now I really know his true colors.

Its kinda worse thing, i have an ex bf.. like that i broke up with him, he don't want but i don't think i'm deserving his love.. i have An advice with u if u love him try to make thing go right try to have serious conversation with him, make his mind be open minded, love is patient, so save relationship with that guy. He just love u so much thats why he likes that. if u love him, don't give up..

Often times...when two people fall in love with each other they are on their best behavior for a certain length of time. They are kind with each other and romantic and everything seems wonderful. Usually this behavior lasts from 6 months to 1 year. Then you have an opportunity to see your partners' true colors. You might see them losing their temper or you might find that you and your partner annoy each other sometimes. This is when we say that 'the honeymoon is over'. That's why the relationship seems happy in the beginning so yes... I agree that the relationship is only happy at first.
