Bit of a rambling one, apologies in advance.

Anyone else get bored in a relationship?

Been with GF for 5 years or so. She's great - clever, fit good fun etc. But when I see or meet other birds, I want to shag them (even if they aren't as fit as GF). I'd like to settle down with this one, but I can't see myself ever settling down. But then I'd never have kids etc, which I'd love to have at some point.

I don't think I've been faithful in any relationship.

Is family life a tossup of not doing what you really want, vs dying alone? Get well looked after and my tea cooked for me every night, could never be single or I'd have to go back to cooking myself.

Is it all about sex? I have plenty with the missus, but can't beat the thrill of someone new. Only reason I don't go pursuing more is the risk of getting caught.

I get bored easily. Start a hobby, become ok at it and then move onto something else. Bit of an adrenaline junky.


TLDR; selfish prick with issues.
