Today we are going to discuss what to do when your partner starts to withdraw and the passion in the relationship begins to dwindle.

Our chosen letter this week comes from Dave;

Hi Nikki and Cleo,

I’m a bit worried about my boyfriend’s behaviour. We were at a party the other evening and he totally overreacted to something a friend of ours said. I told him to stop being such a drama queen and he turned around and left the party, with no warning or thanks to the host. How rude!

I’m getting really fed up with this unpredictable behaviour. We haven’t spoken since then although it’s not too difficult as we’ve been working really long hours. He just changed jobs.

We have been dating for two years now and while he’s a lovely guy in addition to his unacceptable behaviour I’m starting to get a little bored, that’s also being reflected in our sex-life too. It was great in the beginning and he was such a sexy confident guy and would make me feel so special. 

This whole thing began to happen a few months ago when he found out he was being laid off. I think this may have something to do with what’s happening but I also think it’s because he’s quite a bit older than me and I think he’s worried about that. 

I hope you can help as I’m at the end of my tether.
Dave
