Good morning People,

I don’t know if this is the right platform to ask this, but I’m really confused…… and I need your advice. I have been in a relationship for 3 years. I am 25 and plan to travel soon for Masters.
My parents are a bit bothered as they feel ‘there are no husbands abroad’ and the present one is not exactly forthcoming. I personally feel like we are drifting, as we talk once a day after work and for 2-5 minutes as he is always tired.

We hardly hang out, and most times it feels like we don’t know what to say to each other, like communication is a bit awkward.
He is 27. He is young, meaning we should be, at least, crazy about each other, but we are not.

My problem is that he is responsible. Well, I feel he is, but I don’t feel that connection.
