Hello everyone. I am currently in a relationship and have been for almost 5 years now. The thing is we have drifted apart from one another and I don't know how we can get back what we had. I feel as if we both have different outlooks on how we want our relationship. For example, I like to sometimes cuddle in each others arms on the couch and watch our favorite movie toghether but he doesn't cuddle. He says he just feels smothered. I have known my partner for 15 years. I love my partner very much but I feel like I have fallen out of love with my partner. If that makes any sense? I feel like I have grown to love him but it's almost like we have different expectations in what we want out of this relationship. We currently seem to fight over the littlest things and our kids have become an issue with our relationship as well. I feel as if my partner doesn't understand me anymore or as if he does't try with our relationship. I am a very bonding person and like to have close contact with him but he is the opposite. I don't even know if we are right for each other anymore. What can I do?
