Yesterday I woke up to my boyfriend saying “we need to talk.” We agreed that he would come to my place after work to talk. my boyfriend came to my house with a very puffy and swollen eyes that night obviously he cried a lot. He told me that for a while now he feels as if he has suddenly fallen out of love of me and he has no idea why.
Even before dating my boyfriend he told me the reason why his past relationship ended was because of this as well, whenever he gets into a relationship while everything is going well he would just slowly fall out of love without reason, he never really talked to anyone about this before but he honestly thinks there is something wrong with him.
anyway, my boyfriend told me he feels like he has fallen out of me and that he doesn’t know why and he feels like he just wants to be alone. he said he still likes me and still cares for me it’s just he feels like there’s just no romantic feelings anymore and he said he is so confused and he is so upset cause everything was going well and non of us has done anything wrong. he keeps telling me for a while now that he thinks there is something wrong with him and thats also why he thinks why he has fallen out of love and just wanted to be alone.
I did not agree to break up with him and told him that base on his reasons I think he needs to see a therapist and that we can work things out, i told him I am not agreeing to the break up because i think he needs someone to support him and that i believe we can still work things out especially if he seeks professional help.
when I first suggested for him to seek professional help he hesitated and said his pride wont let him but after talking for a while we agreed to stay together but set up boundaries for now since he feels the need to be alone and away from me for awhile and wanted some space, and he also finally agreed that he thinks he needs to see a psychologist and is actually looking for one right now.
Has anybody experienced their loved one falling out of love or feel like they dont love you anymore because of depression or does it feel like he really fell out of love with me?
Ive been really sad lately, i cant help but cry all the time, we still talk like usual but i just cant help to be sad thinking someone i love suddenly feel like they dont love me anymore. but on the other hand im happy that he is willing to seek help and try to work things out.
i just feel like if this has happened before and it history kept repeating itself and he hasnt done anything about it its because he has never had someone there supporting him and its because he had never tried seeking help relating to this issue.
