Dear Anyone,

I have been dating my boyfriend for three years. He used to attend graduate school near where I currently attend college (I will graduate this May). After he received his degree, he moved back home, which is the complete opposite side of the country from me. We have been in a long distance relationship for 1.5 out of our three years together.

He has now been looking for a job for 1.5 years...it's starting to put him down that he cannot find a position in the field he wants to enter. He is not the same person I began dating three years ago (he's depressed, negative, irritable, etc), and I am beginning to focus on the negative in our relationship.

Compounding the situation is the fact that I have met a new man. We are both student teaching right now, have a lot in common, and talk quite often. My father always told me that "the boyfriend becomes the husband", but frankly I think about this person every other minute I'm awake!! I am beginning to think that maybe I am more compatible with this new person than I am with my boyfriend (maybe we have simply grown apart...?)

At any rate, I'm confused. I cannot "kick a man while he's down" and break up with my boyfriend who is going through such a rough time. BUT, I cannot think of many things at all that are positive about our relationship right now. I guess I am hoping to stick it out and hope that my boyfriend returns to his normal state after (eventually) he gets a job.

Thought I was set, now I'm completely confused
