Dear Fonseca
My relationship with my boyfriend has come to a dead stop. We're more like roommates than lovers. The other night, we were sitting on the couch when I said our relationship has gotten too comfortable. He said that 'comfortable' is good, but if I don't like it I'm free to go out and casually date to see if I can find anything better. I was shocked that my boyfriend would say this. Does this mean he doesn't care? He says he loves me and is confident I won't leave him or find anything better. I have to admit, the idea of dating again excites me although I do love my boyfriend and 'comfortable' is good some of the time. What would you do if you were me? Should I date?
