Him: 20 year old man with seasonal depression. Is a musician, kinda abstract thinker, part time job.
We've been together for just over a year now. With a one month break from early September to October.
I just don't feel the same anymore
I feel stuck with him almost
It'd kill him if I left him and I think it'd kill me too, but I don't even know anymore.
We live 98 miles apart and I typically see him every weekend. But when I'm not with him I forget he exists and I just feel numb toward him (and everything else right now) but he was the one thing I NEVER felt numb toward before. Help?Advice? Anything to help me save this?

As long as you expect to always feel taht fire for your partner that you had early on, the chance of long term relationships is diminished. Fact is that feelings for someone else whether a friend or a lover, will ebb and flow, sometimes for some people in extreme levels. Love is what continues in spite of feelings for someone. If you feel like you dont' even like them at any particular time, you still can love them and when people can understand this they are more apt to have lasting relationships. Those that can endure the apathetic phases that inevitably come have the strongest relationships. Also - on a good note, if someone does endure, typically the feelings will flow again after a time.
Keep that in mind.
