For a the last few weeks, my live-in boyfriend and I are constantly fighting about little things. Today he said, "all I want is for us to be happy. We don't need counseling, we just need to have fun." How can we do this so we can just be happy with each other again??!

both of you need to write out (or talk over a bottle of wine) and tell each other what first drew you together. What were your first impressions of each other? What are your favorite things about each other? What initially attracted you to one another? Reviewing these kinds of things has kept me married for 22 years (even though I've been in a divorce lawyer's office more than once). Go back to the sweet days of the beginning. It will work, I promise! Good luck!:)

Well, I hear couples fight about topics, but not the real issue. If your boyfriend says the real issue is that he is bored, take him up on it and plan some fun dates. Go white-water rafting. Take a free dance lesson. Learn to scuba dive. I don't know your interests, but stop fighting and start solving. If you have a complaint, then give a possible solution. If your/his voice gets loud, take a break. If money is the issue, make a budget and stick to it. You can do this. There is site after site on how to improve relationships. Check some out and have some fun. Best of luck!

Sit down with each other and find out what the problem is instead of arguing talk like two adults things will be a whole lot better once yall take this approach

I can totally relate.. Does he work? how about when he is at work one day you stay home and plan a suprise for him, like a trip, or something that will be what you'll both enjoy. Then for at least the next couple days you will be talking about taht and not bickering

if a relationship is like that, he is most likely to dump you since he is complaining about every little things that are bothering him. Sorry, get a new guy
