There isn't a single person alive who can be "attractive" to everybody. We can't be "compatible" with everybody. Sometimes the chemistry just isn't there. It's just a fact, and not necessarily a fault
You can be so attracted to another person that you'll "fake it" and just agree with everything that person thinks, and believes, and says, and say "Oh, wonderful" to everything that person suggests doing. You can pretend to like what he likes, whether it's food, or his favorite color, or his favorite singing artist, or whatever. And you can be so successful at it that you make this person believe you are absolutely meant for each other.
But time passes, and sooner or later the relationship has to go to the next level. What then? You end up getting engaged? Then married? All of a sudden you realise that you are going to have to keep up this act for the rest of your life. Well, it can't be done, and you begin to slip - back into being who you REALLY are. You start saying what you really think, and behaving the way you were meant to behave because it's the real you. That's the point where that partner begins realising that this is not the person they believed he or she was when you walked down the aisle together, and, well, eventually those two people become just another line on the Ledger Sheet of all the divorce records.
The idea is not to TRY to be anything you know you're not, because as sure as eggs, you are not going to be able to keep up that pretence forever. You be who you truly are, and if that isn't compatible with what that other person feels he or she needs in a partner, then it's time to move on, because somewhere out there, there IS a person who will like the real you, and you will never have to pretend to be anyone else.

I made a list of what i love about my relationship on my blog, hopefully it can help you too :)
1. Respeto - Respect before anything. We respect each other highly and never disrespectful to one another. No name callings..honestly no fights..we talk our situations out. Nothing comes from fighting, only words and actions that you cannot take back.
2. Trust - We trust each other and we dont indulge in that myspace/blackplanet bull. No offense to those who do it. It might work for you, but its just our way of keeping drama out of this household. Sometimes you just get to old for that mess.
3. Our huggies - ok i need to explain this. In the mornings i usually wake up around 7:45 am to walk the dog then im in the office and Ty’s sleep until 8am. When he wakes up he says this “Thea”? im like “huh?” he’s like “C’mere” and I go and when i walk in the room he’s in the bed with his arms wide open (wanting a hug) so then i jump in the bed and hug him for about 4 minutes. This is a daily routine lol. Oh HUSH lol
4. They way we are affectionate towards each other - Why not show your significant other how you feel?
5. Missing each other - I miss him when he’s at work and he misses me also and when i workout on the weekend. He hits me up on blackberry messenger saying “Me and the dog miss you” lol…im a sucker for love and i never get my intended workout lol.
6. Heavy Communications- When he’s at work we literally email each other back and forth all day til he comes home. We’ve been doing this even before we moved in together and started officially dating.
7. No pressure - We create a “no pressure” environment. Seriously thats an agreement. NO marriage no babies, nothing. I first was thinking about marriage but you know what, i realized whats more important to be with or without him and honestly the divorce rate is so high now..id rather just be his girl and he’s my guy. We still plan for the future and one day it will happen but as long as we are both happy there is no rush. A piece of paper dont guarantee happiness or that someone won’t leave.
8. Similarities - We are so much alike its spooky. We are very nonchalant, like same foods, & same things..we react to things similarly
9. When im in a sh*tty mood and quiet he says “you being mean to me woman” and i cant help but start laughing lmao or he’ll say “mean lady!” lmao
10. We are goal oriented

im trying to develop the same thing. me and my bf have been together for 11 months and we dont seem to strong. we both say i love you but its not that strong of a bond.
i would suggest being completely open and honest with each other. that way u two will feel completly comfortable with one another. i would also have a lot more converstions and just be there for each other when u need it. slowly u two will have a much stronger bond. just be patient and open with each other.
good luck!

Never hide anything from each other. Total honesty is the key. Also, build a strong foundation, by being friends as well as lovers.

Be completely open and honest with him and he needs to be that way with you. Get to know him inside and out. Do NOT do anything that either of you are NOT ready for. Also always communicate about everything and absolutely NO secrets from each other, and share everything.
