You are the expert on you. I could give you advice, but it might end up being unhelpful and I do not want to do that. But you should know that you deserve to be happy. Whatever you decide to do make sure you are doing it for you and not anyone else. Try talking to him and see how he feels you should not have to bottle this up. Eventually, you will not have any more room and will explode. We are here to listen to you and we all support your decisions. Just know you are never alone.

You must first start by loving yourself. Then you will need no one to love you. Self love is the best love and you will never be worried about a break up.

well, in my own opinion i dont think that seems very fair on your boyfriend as you are technically leading him on and hoping someone else will come along. men might show more of an interest if they know you are single. and plus sometimes its good to work on yourself and let yourself grow on your own. you dont need a man to be happy. you can grow to be happy alone. and sometimes when you aren't even searching for love, someone will just come along. just be patient, and maybe talk to your boyfriend about how you are feeling and whats going on with your relationship

Having been divorced twice, I believe that it makes a person more unhappy to stay with the wrong person than to be alone. You also have to realize that while you have a boyfriend other guys are usually not going to be interested in you out of respect because you are already "taken". You will probably be surprised at the attention you receive once everyone knows you are single again. And some alone time will be good for you to reflect on what you are really looking for in a man so you don't get stuck again in a loveless relationship.
