Why do I feel like I want to break up with my boyfriend?

Anonymous
He's everything I could ever want. He's kind, smart, funny, handsome, gets my awkwardness. We're sexually compatible. And yet I get the strangest feeling that I don't really love him.

Maybe it's supposed to feel like this. Maybe I'm just going through the motions and not sure what love is supposed to feel like since this is my first relationship. Maybe I need to stop thinking that there will be more than this. I feel like I'm waiting for something. Like a big spark to come along with us but it's just not there yet. Maybe it will come...

The crazy part is I fought hard for us to be together. I wanted us to be together for the longest and now that we are official, it feels like I'm trying hard to keep the feeling alive of wanting this.

We're long distance and everytime we're in person I expect the sparks to fly but they don't. The sex is good, sometimes great even but that seems to be the highlight of our visit and I know it shouldn't feel like this. It shouldn't just be about sex when we see each other.

And when we're not together, our talks on the phone is boring for the most part.

But I fear I won't find anyone who gets me like he gets me. It's not my reason for sticking it out but I do feel like I won't ever find another guy who is as accepting as he is.

I just want to know I'm doing the right thing with being with him and not stringing him along. I know it might sound like I am but I do feel strongly for him. I just don't know if it's strong enough to still keep going on. I guess I'm confused. Need some guidance. Thanks.
