    Break up with him.

    Does he refuse to socialise, or does he just embarrass you when he does so? Either way, you're not happy and he isn't fulfilling your needs, but something has kept you in this relationship for 2 years. You need to work out what it is, and whether losing it is worth not moving on with your life for.

    I'm not so sure if it's worth even considering what has kept you in the relationship for 2 years to be perfectly honest. You obviously have no respect for this guy whatsoever and, despite the fact that you claim to adore him, you see your relationship as a complete disaster (apart from the sex). I'm sure if he knew that you thought that he was socially inept, he'd probably want out of the relationship himself.

    You both deserve better, obviously aren't right for each other and should both be given the opportunity to move on with your lives and meet more suitable partners.

    Have to agree with Tito on this one.
    Why are you in a relationship with him? especially a two year relationship?

    You say you have two different view points - thats enough right there for many people to find someone else. Because usually that can create a rifts/problems. Two people have to see eye to eye on a number of things. Not all. But alot. Not to mention you think he is socially inept.



    Dare I say, are you only dating this man out of convience?

    You say you see no future. But what will happen? will you continue to date him until someone else comes along? Cause your bound to meet someone who will spark your interest. Then what? break up with him then? .. perhaps cheat?

    If this is how you feel. You should just talk to him. Perhaps realise you should break up. Whats the point in dating him for 6 months then breaking up. Because you'd be ready then? or someone else? that would make you selfish and a user.
