Unsure about relationship

    I've been with my boyfriend for just over a year. Until about 4 days ago, I'd never been so happy in my entire life, I was so smitten and wanted to be around him all the time. But all of a sudden, things about him started to annoy me and I felt I needed some space and didn't really want him to touch me or anything. We've just decided on moving in together and I'm not sure if this is a normal reaction (picking holes in something that's going so well) or if I'm not ready for living with him or if I've just gotten bored of him (can that happen so quickly??). On the other hand, when I said bye to him earlier today (won't see him for maybe a day or two at most) I was really sad and didn't want to leave him. I feel all over the place and don't know why I'm feeling like this. Usually I'd put such a rapid mood swing down to hormones, but it's not period time :(

    Any advice or anything would be great. I'm not even sure what I want people to tell me...

    OP again. Has anybody got any advice on this? Today I'm just feeling really down in general but I can't pin point why. I just have this cold feeling in the pit of my stomach and feel like I'm on the verge of tears constantly. Any time I've felt this before, it's had a reason (eg a break up, moving away from home for college etc). I just don't know if this is a normal reaction...

    If you're unsure about the relationship then I'd advise against moving in with him. Sounds like you may be getting cold feet or feel that you're rushing into things so if that's the case talk to him and tell him you'd like to postpone moving in together for now but that you still want to be with him.

    Dear OP, maybe it's PMS you're suffering from which can start a week or two before you get your period. It can have serious emotional side effects. This may be why you assume it's not a hormonal issue when maybe it is the cause.

    I know for myself, I can experience a whole range of intense emotions two weeks before I get mine. It's tough being a woman sometimes.
