I have been with my boyfriend for 3 years now, and in the past 6 months our sex life has gone completly, even kisses and cuddles have gone. I have tried more or less everything. We are more like friends now as we have nothing in common like we use to and both want different things. Is it time to let the relationship go?

lexilou agony auntTry to get back what you had first. Talk to him and see how he feels about your relationship. Dont give up so easily it takes a lot of hardwork and committment to make any relationship work x

Neoloverboy23 agony auntWell, to me, I would say that you should just be friends with him, but even though you and boyfriend have nothing in common now, you can still make your relationship better by trying new things with each other. Find something that you and him really want to do and just take it from there, but if you only want to be friends with him, just talk to him and reflect back on the relationship and decide what to do now with him.

Uncle Sneaker agony auntMaybe.

But take a step back, and consider whether this is the person you could get on with for the rest of your life. Love, passion, always having everything in common - it's all very nice but in the real world it just doesn't happen for ever. You are individuals. The question is whether you feel comfortable with each other to the extent that in all of life's ups and downs you can work together as a partnership, a team. It's not for nothing that the old wedding ceremony has the words "for better or for worse" in it. That's what you need to ask yourself, not whether you have everything in common and an inexhaustible supply of kisses, cuddles and unbridled passion...
