Males and Females

So something was on my woman's mind last night and I asked if she wanted to talk about it. Well, it turned into a 45 minute conversation about how she's not necessarily unhappy, but she's disappointed in how I don't really plan on doing fun shit and I just want to sit around and do nothing every weekend. She also mentioned how we kinda rushed into the relationship, but she was never explicit that she regrets it. Now, I love going and doing shit with her, but I just don't really feel like planning shit half the time. She did compliment me on the fact that I'm supportive and that I'm respectful of her (I don't ask for pics of her tits and shit). She also misses the fact that we used to have in depth conversations about interesting shit when we first started dating and we don't really do that anymore. Because of this, we're going to start setting aside time during the weekends to just chat about stuff. We're not allowed to talk about work, our parents or bitch about anything unless it's relevant to the conversation or topic at hand.

I'm really afraid I'm going to lose this girl and I really like her, like, a lot. Pretty sure I'd be heartbroken if I lost her and I would revert back to drinking myself stupid every weekend if I lost her.

I don't know. Maybe this is one of those times where I need to figure out if I really want a relationship or what. It seems like everything backfires for me when it comes to women. Maybe I just get to comfortable and take everything for granted? People say I'm too smart for my own good when it comes to women and that makes it hard for me to nab a woman?

I'm just rambling at this point.
 
So, she's upset she isn't twitterpated about you anymore and how you've both become comfortable around each other.

/women

The relationship should be 50/50 as far as activities go. It's not your fault you can't come up with something to do every waking moment you're together. Tell her if she always wants to do something to start coming up with ideas ffs.

Well, she's always coming up with ideas and I'm not. I would just rather chill out and watch TV when I'm the one making the decisions.
 
People inevitably get less and less interesting to each other over time. If she's gotten all the "novelty" she can out of you by now, she would need to decide whether she's ready to just stick with someone long-term or whether she wants to continue being a little girl and require a relationship to be "interesting" in order for it to "work".

I'd try to figure that out if i were you, but if you can't, you'd better be comfortable investing more time into tedious "fun" to appease her.
 
Hate to say it, but your relationship's generally doomed if you have to consciously plan how to keep it working.

Do stuff instead of sitting about. I've found that doing things can be good. Especially on the weekend. Sitting about time is post-work during the week. If you're just sitting about all weekend it's no wonder she's bored.

I'll cut you some slack since you're you, but this is setting the bar absurdly low. Of COURSE a relationship should be "interesting" in order to "work" - I seriously, seriously pity people who don't think that should be a requirement.

Ozzman - quick, devise a plan of attack and surprise her with something spontaneous, even if it's something as gay as packing a picnic and watching airplanes at the airport. Fun and spontaneous doesn't have to = spending lots of money. There's a reason long-term couples have "date nights" and shit like that.

That's what it sounds like to me. You're acting like an old married couple. How old are the two of you? She probably doesn't want to be treated like an old wife if she's still young.

You should take her on a weekend getaway, even if it's somewhere close by. Vacations always recharge a relationship and vacation sex is the best.

Maybe I just get to comfortable and take everything for granted?

ding ding ding!

Try harder. Woman hate stagnation, complacency, laziness etc. Once you got comfortable she lit the wick and now it's time for you to stomp that motherfucka out, gear up and sabotage her ass (ya know, surprise her w flowers, go out and get "crazy" & tell her you're thinking about joining the gym.)

i totally agree with this
the 2 of you are just not a good fit
if she can't get to the point where she can spend every day cuddling with you while watching TV, then she needs to go find a herself a guy that's not your personality type
there are alot of males out there that don't even own a TV set because they're only in their house to sleep, you're girlfriend need to break up with you and date one those guys
you need to go out and find a a bunch of girls that are totally addicted watching television, and date the one that watches the same TV shows that you like

I think men hate this too generally. People don't like being bored.
 
People don't like being bored.

ofcourse, people don't like being bored, but here's the thing

when you're in a relationship, the girl's gonna get all exited about specific things that are boring to a guy (like making "shopping" turn into an all-day event)

and then the guy will get all exited about specific things that the girl will find boring as hell (The Super Bowl, NASCAR)

this is why straight girls sometimes "try to make a gay guy turn straight"

and why men watch The Super Bowl in large groups
