#C27493 I'm a 32-year-old woman, and for the last three years I've been in a live-in relationship with my partner. When we first moved in together, it felt like a dream. We travelled together, cooked together, watched movies late into the night, and talked about getting married one day. Everyone around us thought we were the perfect couple. The problem started when life became routine. He began spending more time with friends, staying out late, and becoming increasingly secretive about his phone. Whenever I asked questions, he would tell me I was overthinking. I wanted to trust him, so I ignored the feeling in my gut. A few months ago, we attended a friend's birthday party. While everyone was enjoying themselves, I noticed how comfortable he was with another woman in our group. The conversations, the private jokes, the constant texting afterward—it all started to bother me. I never found proof of anything inappropriate, but I couldn't shake the feeling that I was no longer the person he was most excited to talk to. When I finally confronted him, he said they were just friends and accused me of being insecure. Since then, things have become awkward between us. We still live together, still share expenses, and still act like a couple in public, but something feels different. The hardest part is that I genuinely love him. Walking away after three years isn't easy. At the same time, I don't know if I'm holding on to the relationship we used to have rather than the one we have now. Has anyone ever stayed in a relationship because of the history and memories, even when their heart was telling them something had changed? Looking for honest advice and experiences.

You went from co-pilot to backseat. But the car is still running. Next step is passenger.
It's just that every individual needs his/her space. He's living with you since 3 years and never said of leaving you. Why are you so tensed if he just talked to someone casually....casual talks with someone doesn't mean they are in relationship. He prefers it only for time being. Not permanent. He's committed to you. As you are with him since 3 years, you became his part of life. Everyday he can't show excitement seeing you or talking to you. Understand that he too has his space. Respect it. Leave your negative thoughts. You have to live with him for long time.

You think the excitement will last forever? Never. That's the reality. That's what tests relationships and loyalty.
3 yr still wait for mrg? u cross 32 marry or leave
Live-in relationships are more of s3x thn anythin else.
Men : They won’t do breakup like us, you can feel that this relationship isn’t working anymore so walk out, men will act like we are crazy but deep down we all can sense if relationship is going well or not. He has lost interest but won’t tell you
Women get connected long term Men don't
That's the beauty of live in relationship. Had you been married , it would have taken years in legal battle just to get divorced. Here you have to pack your bag and leave. You can't force someone to love you.
Everything is dynamic and that's the way life is. Excitement grows into a calm & steady relationship. No one can be super excited about anything forever. There are so many other things to look forward to, together. Build on your future life & dreams together. Destiny will intervene if you're not meant to together. It's all in the stars. Trust the process & have faith.
Give some space to your partner. I think you are overthinking right now.
I am unable to understand why people want to live together but not formalise the togetherness with a wedding. If they want to experiment with the person and marry only if they are compatible, then what if one lives-in with 10 people in search of compatibility? The fact is that no matches are made in heaven. We make it hell or heaven with our behaviour. There is no perfect match which is 100% perfect. Only cats and dogs have s*x without formal marriage. Humans are supposed to be evolved. My thinking is NOT old world charm thinking before some fake feminism woke person latches on to that bandwagon. Either have a formal relation and a formal breakup of things don't go your way. When entering into a live-in, it is knowingly entering into an unwritten agreement that there is no handle to hold later. It is like buying vegetables in the market, if it is good then make sabji or else throw in the bin. Why to reduce ourselves to the level of a brinjal? Be mature.
Mine was for 7 years 🙄🥺

Marry or leave
Another "the fairy love tale" "starting with full enjoyments and no responsibility" coming to it's usual end 😌
Trust your gut. Period
Ask him to marry you and you will find out the truth about him, whether he is faithful or deceitful
You are the one now into pre-depression, and you are going to cause him too, if you continue this way What's needed is excitement in life, passion, hobbies, spiritual growth related activities, much of life remains to be discovered, it's not all abt husbandonomics, so don't waste time before kids follow and change your life again...take care of yourself before your both health (phy/mental) deteriorates....
Honest advice is, please adjust or leave... Marriage and all is for crazy people... You are in one Live-in relationship... If this doesn't suit... Move out spend few months or days or hours or minutes crying... Womp womp... Then get in another Live-in relationship... That's the way forward in life... People like yourself are the corner stone of decency and morality... The world should learn from you lot... Including me... Shame on those decent men and Pure devi like women who choose to live with decency and purity saving themselves for marriage... They belong from the dark ages... You goldy beings are the future... Hope you find a partner soon and keep us posted how the 2nd, 3rd, or nth one turned out...
