Today, my boyfriend told me he only loves me sometimes. He explained what days he chooses to love me and what days he doesn't want to. I told him that's not how it works. He disagreed. He's 27. He still doesn't understand why this is a problem. FML

Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.

Today, my partner of 4 years has told me that trying to be emotionally present and initiate affection from time to time is too much of a change for them to handle. I wish they had said that the first time I brought it up, instead of stringing me along. Oh, but they "love me". Just not enough to be a better person. FML

This reminds me of that YouTube kid who says he only likes his mommy when she gives him cookies. I think your boyfriend may actually be a two-year-old.

He sounds like an excessively spoilt child. I doubt whether talking will help much, he seems to be stubborn too. If he wants to act like a child treat him like one. I don't mean for you to physically discipline him, but you need to show him that he can't always get what he wants.

Dump him and move on with your life. And try not to date morons in the future.

Ok if he only loves you sometimes where does that unused love go, flushed, in the trash, put away for a rainy day??? There are so many questions. Yes OP don't stay any longer with this "person".

Well, then. You're only dating on the days he loves you, so go out and get a real man.

This man needs a mental health professional. Perhaps as a gesture to show him what love is really about, you should help him find one before you dump him.
