[Ask April Masini]

Your boyfriend’s age difference doesn’t have to be a deal breaker. His taking care care of your kids, the cleaning and the cooking don’t have to be deal breakers, and his video games hobby doesn’t have to be a deal breaker. None of these things on their own are deal breakers.

What’s missing in your post is what [i]has changed[/i] in the year you’ve been dating.

If nothing has changed, and you’ve just chosen someone who isn’t compatible with what you now realize you want, then it’s time for you to hone your idea of who and what Mr. Right is so when you go back to dating, you can date to win! If he’s lost a job and has become someone different than the guy you started to date a year ago, then it’s cause for some empathy and self reflection. But if you’re just in need of relationship maintenance — which ALL relationships need — then check out my books that will help you spark your intimacy in and out of the bedroom.
