My boyfriend and me are very loving but yet lately I've been feeling like all we ever do is the same stuff over and over again. We always end up sitting in the car quietly. He doesn't seem to want to be romantic with me anymore and its only been 6 months. we don't touch or have sex anymore either. Its just silence and now I feel like he's pushing me away because I wanna just give him kisses and hug him but he just kisses me once and we proceed to sit in the silence. Am I doing something wrong?

PeanutButter agony auntBest thing you can do is to talk to him and tell him how you feel - he might be feeling the same way!

It could just be a phase and you might be seeing problems where there aren't any!

The lovey dovey stuff does fizzle out in most relationships but it is what is left that matters after that and, if you're not happy, and can't figure it out then it might be time to move on!

chigirl agony auntNah, this is so typical of teenage boys/relationships. They haven't learned yet how to keep the romance alive. So it dies. That, and when you're young 6 months is perceived as longer. 6 months in a relationship for a teenager is FOREVER, while 6 months to a 40-year old is the blink of an eye. Time goes faster when you're older... And much much more slowly when you're young. So by this theory, you've been together the equivalent of a year to someone the age of 22, three years to someone the age of 30, and five-seven years to someone the age of 40, lol.

Yeah, the lovey dovey stage is over for this relationship, Im afraid. Decide if you like him without the rose tinted glasses on, or move on to the next one.

To be honest, dating at your age is quite simple. Guys don't think too much about being romantic and sex is not really on their mind all the time. Actually it takes guys/men a LONG time to learn to be 'romantic'.

If you're comfortable to sit in silence, don't try to change that.

Summer is here, maybe try to plan more activities and things to do. This phase will pass, don't worry!

I highly doubt you are.. Tbh I'm the same age as you and well my boyfriend and I been through that stage too.. I literally thought that I did something wrong too.. But to be sure, talk to him and ask him. I hope you know that a relationship is not defined by the sex and kisses! If you truly love him and he loves you too, you guys can deinitely talk it through :) At this age, relationships aren't as complicated unless you make it complicated. Don't overthink! Communication is the key :) good luck x
