Romantic Relationship Advice - Watch Out For the Romantic Blockers
When many of us picture romantic relationships we think about holding hands while walking side by side on some exotic beach. The connection is so strong that no words need to be exchanged. Both you and your significant other have the look of love.
Except those times are more like the icing on the cake rather than the actual cake. To achieve that state of bliss requires work on the part of both parties. No doubt you can go for one of those wonderful walks while you are still trying to build and grow your romantic relationship. But far too many couples put the cart before the horse as evidenced by the fact that half of all marriages end in divorce.
Therefore it is important to be aware of those things that can stop your relationship from achieving that level of romantic bliss.
1. The After Work Routine
Having a steady job requires a certain routine. Get up a certain hour and do specific things to get you ready for the day ahead. But it doesn't stop there. The job if you are not careful can easily set the schedule when you come home from work. You are so busy thinking and prepping for the next day that you have no quality time ready for your significant other.
2. The Too Busy Routine
You have always got a full plate. Whether it is attending to some family responsibilities or taking care of business outside the home. You tell yourself that it is an essential part of your life and that's just the way it is. That may be true but it does not have to be. Your spouse should always be number one on your priority list.
3. The Already Known Routine
The two of you have gotten to know each other quite well. Unfortunately that means you are apt to take short cuts in keeping the relationship strong. Or just take each other for granted in the hopes that both of you will understand.
You never stop learning in a relationship and that includes learning about the other person. Don't make the mistake of believing you know all you need to know about your significant other.

Why don't I want to have sex with my boyfriend anymore?
We've been together for 5 years, and sexually active for most of that time, that is, except the past 6 months. In fact, the only time we've had sex this year, I've been drunk. When he makes any sexual advance it just freaking ANNOYS me and I end up pushing him away, and he's the type of guy that won't push back or question it. Trust me, it's not about "spicing it up," I don't want any kind of sex from him. I do still have a sex drive, though.
Other than the sex thing, our relationship is pretty healthy. I adore him. We have known each other for 10 years and are great together.
I love my boyfriend and do not want to end our relationship over sex, but I also think that it is a crucial aspect of a romantic relationship. Advice?
Note: We are not married and do not intend to marry. I have seen marriage suggested for similar questions and not only is it not applicable to my situation, but it is also a ridiculous notion that placing more commitment on the shoulders of a flawed relationship will somehow repair it.
Raven - tried, but the other dude was just super awk
Kaly - obvi, trying to figure out if it's fleeting or permanent
R - maybe I'm too young.. most women don't hit their sexual prime until their 40s

OCD and romantic relationships...Advice?
I've been talking to this guy that I REALLY like...and get along with so well. He's everything I'm looking for... I've never been in a relationship before...and I have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder...so needless to say, my head is a wreck. I'm already consumed with wondering who he's talking to, wondering what he's doing when he doesnt text me back (and sitting by the phone for hours when this happens) and worrying to death he'll decide I'm not good enough for him, or notice how I'm acting. I'm not a crazy, stalker, "you're not allowed to talk to other girls" type of person, I just see a good thing, and I'm scared to death it's gonna get away from me. I can't help my thoughts... I'm on three medications (Paxil, BusPar, and Depakote) to try to control my anxieties...but I'm still a nervous wreck. Advice? :(
