My boyfriend and I have a great life together but the one thing he never does is plan surprises for me. He is not romantic at all, so I have to keep suggesting things for him to do. I have always known this about him, but I sometimes wonder what it would be like to have someone who is as romantic as I am. I love him a lot and want to marry him, but I don’t want to grow old and regret this decision if he stays the way he is and I end up feeling as if I settled for someone who wasn’t right for me. Is being in love enough for the rest of my life, if I keep having these doubts? We have been together for three years now, but I still wonder about it. What should I do?
You have presumably been in love with this person for three years, which isn’t something to dismiss. It’s always nice to want someone who can fit an ideal persona in our minds, but it should be obvious to you by now that your boyfriend is not that person. You are in love with him for other reasons, all of which are important and shouldn’t be ignored. Will your relationship be successful? Will you fall out of love in a few years? Will you regret not marrying someone more romantic? These are all questions based on speculation, not fact. His personality can change over time, but strong relationships are based on mutual trust, respect, and how you feel about a partner’s presence in your life. Keep the big picture in mind and ask yourself if what you have is enough. If it isn’t, that is when you should reconsider your future with this person.

I went on a few dates with someone, and we admitted to liking each other. Since then, he has stopped communicating. Has he changed his mind? What can I do about this?
You can’t do anything until he reaches out and explains.
