    I felt this way when I was seeing my boyfriend (broke up yesterday). We're there any reasons why you felt this way? Or all you had in your mind was breaking up?

    Sometimes you can still feel emotionally 'trapped' in a relationship, even without dramatic circumstances. Leaving a relationship is scary, often for both partners, and sometimes the fear of the unknown can keep you in a relationship long after you become unhappy. Breaking up hurts, but if you're feeling emotionally 'trapped' by the relationship, in the long run ending it could be the better option for all parties.

    Ever since I started school, I've wanted to be with him less and less, to the point where I couldn't take it anymore. I try to give him a reason as to why I want to break up but the best answer I can give him is it's something that I feel (which is honestly isn't the greatest answer).

    I am happier now that I'm on my own, so there's that.

    I hope not yet . Jake and I been friends since we met in first grade. We moved last year and Liz and me decided to be girls. We went to a local mall and Jake saw me and invited me to the movie. He told me that I thought I was sexy...

    Now, Jake and I are at his house. His mom asked us to watch Drew (Jake's 3 year old brother) since she has a meeting to go to. My mom and dad asked me to watch AA and PR (my twin 7 month old brothers), so we are watching 3 toddlers/ babies this weekend.

    Now that I think of it... Would excitement have anything to do with it? Like, the excitement in the relationship has died down, so that's why I don't want to stay in the relationship anymore?
