Excellent points.  It’s absolutely true, communication is not happening.  I wonder why I am so fearful to bring up these topics?  I am curious if I am disappointed because this isn’t working out to be the fairytale romance I thought it was.  Girl meet boy, boy and girl fall in love, girl and boy have so much fun together, boy and girl move across the US… I believe I felt that this is where I have been disappointed.  Things didn’t stay as they were, and relationships evolve.  That new relationship high has withered away, as it does, and I am left with raw human imperfection and an imperfect relationship.  Also, I feel disappointed that he rarely, if ever, comes to me to talk about things.  It feels very one-sided which in turn makes me feel like I am nagging or creating drama.  I will have this conversation with him, but I am not sure when.  Maybe this weekend would be a good time when we are away from home and only dealing with one another.  I appreciate you.
