So I've had this amazing girlfriend for 7 months. And throughout these seven months, I have been infatuated with her. I think about her all the time, and I wanted to be with her always. A couple days ago I started playing video games, and its just like suddenly I lost interest in her. Now I love her. I really do, and she's prefect for me. And I don't want to break up with her or anything! But its just kinda like I stopped feeling these strong emotions all of a sudden when I started playing vidya. What can I do? This is so weird...any help will be appreciated.

>7 months
haha. just take it easy, OP. unless you're a high schooler, 7 months is still very early in the relationship

I mean I don't plan on doing anything, but I'm just confused as to how I can suddenly just be 100% into her and then only like 40% the next day yknow? I want that undying love and admiration for her to never leave.

Honeymoon phase is probably wearing off. Happens to pretty much every couple at some point.

What do you do about it? Whats next?
That depends entirely on how hard you've been working on a relationship that is deeper than just the infatuation up until now.
Have you compared world views? Life goals? Done any of the work before now?

Yes of course. We have the same life goals and everything. We plan for a future together.

After the honeymoon phase it's essentially a test to see if you can last now that the infatuation has worn off and the real love can start to set in.
What matters now is how well you can get through fights or problems or anything like that and still come out strong. If you can work through anything big or small then you definitely have a chance of having a future. If things seem too overwhelming, this relationship might not be for you.
