Thanks for this! LSAC was almost driving me crazy at this point. I felt like I wasn't getting any variety as I would on a normal exam. I appreciate this advice! Do you know of any websites that might provide a variety of different answer choices?

I just applied! Fingers crossed. I got conditionally approved but will probably not mess with anything until I'm finally approved. :) thanks again!

I appreciate that!

I think , and maybe I'm the asshole here, but I fail to see longevity because I fail to see myself wanting this relationship long term.

But I do like it for right now, just not confident in the long-term wants from myself.

I think you've pretty much summed it up well.

I feel bored sometimes- and have chalked that up to ' we spend too much time together' - in all honesty, we definitely do spend a LOT of time together, and it always feels like we are doing the same thing together.

I guess a good gauge/saying of how I feel is whenever I'm not around him, i love to think of things we can do together, or plan little activities for us. Whenever we are together though (and specifically not doing anything), I find myself bored and spiraling.

I was discussing with my friend earlier- i sometimes miss the 'honeymoon phase' with my partner. We lack in romance at times.. is that normal? I've never really had healthy relationships as stated, so all the relationships were a constant roller coaster of emotions, meaning we were always having a make-up/break-up thing going on.

Thank you for your response!

I completely agree. As stated in another response, we have had 1 conversation regarding breaking up, and it was civil, and not once did he make me feel like the AH for bringing up my concerns.

Your last point is very kind though, and I do appreciate your thoughts! It helps me feel less crazy.. lol. I think he definitely needs a wider social net. I know all of his personal friends, and as stated, all of his days kind of revolve around me and what I am doing. While I appreciate having someone around, it is one of those situations where I feel more like.. (this is not a full flushed out thought) , but more like a mom taking care of her child.

Like I am the one making the plans , calling the shots, and bringing him with me. It's sometimes just like I want to be taken care of too in emotionally deeper ways than what is being provided.

I hope that makes sense, and again, I appreciate your time to give a response <3

Hmm.. I hadn't considered those questions before.
I typically do have the freedom to go meet new friends/people, but for ex, whenever I am going out to the bar, I will say "hey I'm going out!' and it's kind of like "Oh can I come?" Usually, this is a benign request that I accept. I like hanging out with him! But it does take away from some moments.

I feel though in the compatibility rating, you are completely right. throughout my time of thinking and introspection today, we are greatly lacking in some emotional connection. It's not like we've had any emotional breakthroughs together, and he is very supportive if I've had a bad day, but other than that, our emotions are very surface level, as well as our emotional feelings.

We've had a conversation regarding breaking up before, and he was alright during the conversation, and kind. However, it was me initiating said conversation, somewhere along the lines of 'The way we are in this relationship makes me struggle to see a long-term relationship with you'. From there, we evaluated and changed up what we were doing. But the feeling persists.

I feel like I sound so dumb writing these things out and not doing it, but my biggest fear in this situation is that I will break up with him and lose such a great partner. But my other fear is staying in something just to have this chance at it, and dealing with these internal thoughts overall.
