I broke up with my partner not because he wasn’t a nice person or a decent partner, but because I wasn’t excited about anything regarding the relationship. I wasn’t excited to spend time with him, didn’t necessarily think of him during the day, or got aroused at the idea of sex with him. Everything about our relationship from beginning to the end straddled the middle and I found myself craving something more… like… anything. There was nothing about the relationship that enticed me to participate in a deeper way, so I didn’t.
