Heart It
You feel comfortable in your routine, but not excited about it
Having a go-to person to chill with on a Friday night or cling to at holiday office parties has its pluses, for sure. "If you stay [with someone] in the absence of attraction, it's not so much because they're nice, but because you're getting something out of the relationship," says Dr. Esposito. "This could be many things: companionship, avoiding loneliness, perks, and so on." But it's also a convenient comfort to keep you from acknowledging how you really feel about a person. Shaking up your status quo (especially when there's no pressing reason) is hard. But if you keep looking at other peoples' relationships and wishing you felt that same level of passion for your boyfriend, maybe a shake up is exactly what you need.
