So today my BF texts me about the past 2 years we've been together. How we've had good times and got so far together. That now he wants me to think about what we might want out of this, how if I choose to keep being with him he's "no prize" and will make me sad. He also says if there's no bad times then what do the good times really mean? That I'm "getting a chance" others never had.

Like WTF? I asked if this was supposed to be good or bad and he won't answer, just says "think on it". We live together and have since before we dated, just signed our current lease and other coupley things... Like why ask now about this and place it on me to make decisions?

FINALLY GOT THE 15K WARDROBE DONE!!!!! Next up gutting and selling it.

Right? It's like if he wants to talk why not just say so? And it hasn't been brought up by him at all since. However last night he did sing a sing about cheeseburgers in his sleep when I talked to him and thought he was awake lol So idk how serious he may have been about this either, but it is a pretty big thing to just say out of nowhere unprompted.

Honestly, it sounds like he's feeling a little insecure about why you're still with him (asking you if he is what you really want) and is offering you an out. If you do want to stay with him, maybe try reassuring him of that? Tell him why you want to be with him, and why you think he's a good match for you. I don't think he wants to break up, just that he's feeling unworthy and wants a little reassurance that you aren't thinking of leaving him. (At least, that's what I was able to gather - I could be way off.)

Also, you mentioned you live with him? Bring it up in person when you both have some time to talk about it. Ask him to be clear about what's been on his mind. Help him open up about it.

I hope this was at least a little helpful. D=

It's a good conversation to have every once in a while, but it is not a conversation you should be having alone (since he brought it up. Regularly have this conversation with yourself, about EVERY aspect of your life. It's healthy). The two of you should sit down, get serious and separately state what you want for your future. Wait until both of you have finished before replying. And don't get freaked out. Every single couple needs to have this conversation on occasion. He probably is just feeling like the relationship is too good for him.

There might be something more going on though. Some guys will - because they don't really want to let go- try to get a woman to leave them instead of just ending it. The best way to address it is to be honest about how it made you feel. Tell him it scared you. It's not your responsibility to make that kind of a choice for him. Don't wait to bring it up either, or for him to bring it up. Best to not waste time when it could really be nothing at all.
