My boyfriend is very smart 3.9 GPA (going to law school), tall (6'2''), sporty (college football player), good looking, etc. ...

Well, he has his problems. He does not like to show his feelings (to me), very egocentric, very stubborn, very short temper, and act baby sometimes, etc.

In the past 3 years, we don't get along very well. We almost break up two times. The only thing that keep us going is we have a very strong physical connection--We took each other breath away when we first met and there is so much chemistry between us.

I am tired of all the dramas and want to leave him. To be honest, I am hanging on because I afriad I could not find any better guys.

I know, I am stupid.

What do you think? Thank you so much for your help.

I guess you better get your heads together and talk it through.
Tell him what you not happy about, and ask what he's not happy about. Physical attraction is not a relationship maker either, jus because he's an attractive man, doesn't make him your ideal partner.
If the desire is there to leave him, things must be pretty bad at times, quote ''Well, he has his problems. He does not like to show his feelings (to me), very egocentric, very stubborn, very short temper, and act baby sometimes, etc.''
Let me tell you something, that is most men. Don't stay with him for fear of being left behind, or left on the shelf, just because you'll be on your own or lonely. If you stick with him for that reason, you may end up regretting it. There are more guys out there, some good, some bad, and looks don't dictate what kind of person they are.
No, I don't think your stupid, far from it, I think you have guts posting a question like this, it's a cry for help, a question you DON'T want to answer yourself, but I'm affraid(judging by your question) you and you alone can answer, It doesn't matter how many helpfull answers you get here, you'll still have doubts as to whether your doing the right thing. Talk to him, tell him what your thinking, and why you think the way you do, It may fix the relation ship, it may break it, but at least it may be a mutual thing, no hard feelings or anger.
Think about it for a while, then get it sorted in your head what you want, then see it through.
Good luck, and I hope this has helped in some way.............

Your not stupid.
You have your entire future in front of you. This is not the only guy in the world so if things do not work out, never be afraid to let go of him if you have to.
Otherwise, give it some time, maybe back away from each other a few times a week to see what happens. Give each other some breathing room.
Maybe its just a matter of being able to have some time away from each other so you can do things with your friends. Spend some time doing some things without each other so that when you go on your next date together you will have something new to talk about.
Take yourself on a little trip by yourself just to get away and clear your frustrations.
Give yourselves some time to miss each other yet always be supportive of one another whenever you can.

It's time for you to move on. Who needs all of the drama? Chemistry sometimes isn't enough. You're having to battle way to many things here. And, it is stupid to think that you couldn't find anyone better. There's no reason to settle for someone like that, you know? This is one of those situations that you'll know when you've had enough. I've had enough bad relationships and walked off because of how they acted and how they treated me =) trust me, I've never looked back. I'm in a wonderful relationship now, we have to deal with dramas around him, but he's a great person with a huge heart! That's the difference! If someone is has their shortcomings AND they treat you badly, move on =) and if not, then person deserves what they get, I'm sorry to say.

You aren't stupid, but you have to know that there is much more to a relationship than a physical connection. That is going to get old over time... you really have to like someone as a person in order to be with them long-term. If you have spent the last 3 years together and it hasn't gone well, then you should probably get out and find someone that you enjoy spending time with, not just the physical stuff. Trust me, you can find someone better. He doesn't sound like a very nice person at all. I wouldn't want to spend time with someone like that, even if he is nice to look at. Move on girl!!

Oh honey you deserve someone who will show you the world. Don't ever settle for less! Even though physical chemistry is a big part of a relationship it isn't the only aspect. I am sure you can find someone just as smart and even better looking that won't hold back their feelings and will truely cherish you which will make the physical chemistry even that much greater. Go for the gold you don't deserve anything less and it sounds like you have a real lemon on your hands.

I believe shelle; I do not believe you are dull both. You categorical your self good to your 2d language. If matters were getting worse among you and your boyfriend, it probably well in case you had been to get a divorce with him. Having a robust bodily connection is well, however a robust bodily reference to mutual recognize is far bigger. I believe having any one love you for who you're, now not what you appear like on his arm, probably a bigger position so that you can be. You without doubt deserve bigger than being subjected to his drama king nonsense. However, it's *YOUR* name to make, however must you're making it, believe approximately staying unmarried for a whilst, and make a want record for the style of boyfriend you would love to have, then appear for him amongst your peers. Sometimes the correct individual is rght underneath your nostril. Food for idea: If you wrap a field of grime with lovely paper and glossy ribbons, it is nonetheless a field of grime. And check out to not accept Mr Right-Now. You are valued at greater than that.

Stupid? No, you are a woman. We tend to think that bad men will be better because we are good people and it will rub off.

Honey, it won't. You will be having this talk with yourself when you are 50 and he walks out on you after years of cheating (that's what these types do) and you will have wasted your life.

He's not going to get better and as you get older, both your good looks will fade.

Life is too short for that nonsense. Leave him, and walk away and never look back. You can do better, you deserve better. Good luck to you.

Honey, you aren't stupid, maybe a little confused. Physical attractions can be very powerful, but in the end, will not sustain your happiness. In reading your question-let's face it, you really don't have a lot of positive things to say about your man-and don't mention your FEELINGS for him. You will find other guys to date-believe in your self! Don't stay in a sad relationship because you're afraid. Trust me, there are worse things than being alone, and it sounds as though being with this guy is one of them. Ending a relationship with him will no doubt be somewhat difficult-but you can do it! Good luck!

How old are you? If you attracted him you should be able to find another. Quit putting yourself down. The physical attraction is great but not when you have to deal with the attitude day after day. I'd move on. You can probably get him back if you decide you made a mistake if the physical thing is that strong.

i understand.... when i was married there was soooo much drama going on... but didn't want to leave because i didn't know if i would find a better person... well i divorced him because my well being was more important than the drama he was sending me through... and a year later i found the most wonderful man... he treats me like a queen and we are very much in love..... just know this... "there's someone for everyone" and you will find that person one day. if this guy is the one then fate will bring you back together. my suggestion... end the relationship but remain friends.... he might come around he might not... but don't waste your time. good luck.
