I've been with my boyfriend for 15 years and we've lived together for 8. We've haven't had any major issues such as cheating but we've gone through some bad times together. Currently I feel like we're living more like roommates than a couple. We don't have any children and we keep our seperate interests but when it comes down to the romance department, there just isn't any. I've tried to do new things together like take a couple's painting class and I even want to take ballroom or salsa dancing lessons hoping that will bring back the spark. But he's not interested in the dancing and he only did the painting class because he went to college for art, he's an artist.

He's a producer and makes beats but he's never made a song inspired by me. I don't know, I guess I feel like I'm not a priority in his life. He doesn't treat me terrible, he treats me well, but there's just no romance. He won't plan any dates, he doesn't give me flowers...I don't know. Am I just overthinking this? I love this man, and want to be with him but not as his roommate, as his soulmate. Advice?

I've lost 15 pounds and lost my appetite, but I'm really attached to him. We've had a lot of problems and I think that has caused me to gain severe anxiety. I don't know if I should wait until it gets better or what. Everytime I've blocked him, it has tend to make me...
