\"Processed<\/a>Dear gabby,<\/p>\n

I have been in a relationship for about 2 years. Recently she’s been so busy that I feel like she’s never around. It’s been really hard because I feel like I’m losing her and the love I once had for her. Don’t get me wrong, she’s so perfect and the best I’ve ever had but I feel like maybe we’re growing apart or that we’re hanging on by a thread. I’m really scared and I guess maybe I’m just stressed in other aspects of my life so it’s really tearing me apart. I’m not sure if we should go our separate ways or that im just so stressed about everything that im blaming it on her. But I’m starting to think maybe I should try to find someone else. What should I do?<\/p>\n

Sincerely,
\nLost without love<\/p>\n

Dear Lost without love,<\/p>\n

I think it\u2019s hard when you\u2019ve started to make a life with someone and you start to see yourself as a unit. Once you\u2019re connected, it\u2019s hard to break away when maybe it\u2019s possibly time to do so. I\u2019m not saying that you shouldn\u2019t be together, but maybe it\u2019s time to reconsider what\u2019s important to you in a relationship.<\/p>\n

Start to look at yourself and your goals as an individual. If she doesn\u2019t match your goals and future ideas then maybe it\u2019s time to separate, but think about what you want first. Does she still fit in your life? If so, then make sit down with her and discuss what\u2019s bothering you and come to a compromise.<\/p>\n

She sounds incredibly busy, but if it\u2019s because she\u2019s working on accomplishing her dreams then in my opinion, I don\u2019t think it\u2019s ok to be mad at her. It may be frustrating, but ultimately she\u2019s working toward a future and staying true to her personal goals.<\/p>\n

Maybe you should start looking at accomplishing some things for you, so that when she\u2019s busy you\u2019ll also be busy. Maybe it\u2019s as simple as creating a date night once a month to spend some time together. Maybe also time to reevaluate why you\u2019re together and if you are hanging by a thread, don\u2019t feel obligated to keep holding on if it\u2019s something you don\u2019t want anymore\u2014that just makes it worse and it\u2019s exhausting.<\/p>\n

Another side is looking at your professional life and your career, is that stress overpowering your relationship? Sometimes we as human beings get caught up in a variety of different problems and instead of taking one thing at a time we get so overwhelmed that every \u201cproblem\u201d in our life melts together and creates more emotions and issues than what he had imagined in the first place.<\/p>\n

Take a few moments to breathe. Evaluate yourself and then your relationship. It\u2019s ok if you\u2019re a different person than you were before. Change is good and if it\u2019s time to move on, that\u2019s ok too. Don\u2019t be afraid to evolve.<\/p>\n

Trust yourself,
