I've been in an LTR for 6 years now and we've broken up 4 times. I'm getting so sick and tired of this relationship I don't know what to do and it's not that I don't love the girl because I REALLY do. Let me rundown our breakups:
4.5 years ago - I was really mean and immature for the first year in our relationship so she broke up with me (rightfully so).
4 years ago - Some moron at her work started talk to her and I guess she liked the attention... I got the boot
2 years ago - Another moron at another job made some moves on her and was "there as a friend"... I got the boot again
1 year ago (last summer) - I told her I needed to date other girls. We broke up for a month and got back together.
So here I am a year later and all I can think about is other women. I don't even want a relationship with them, just mess around. Everytime I try to talk about this with her I always get asked "You don't love me?". It's not that though, I do love her... hell, I want to marry her someday, but I have to get stuff out of my system. I've only had 2 partners before and my "fool around" count is under 10. I feel like I miss out on a LOT in the past 6 years and before I know it the prime of my life will be over. On the otherhand I love her SO much and don't want to lose her!
What do I do??
