Has anyone left a long term relationship not because they were totally unhappy but to say "make an upgrade"? If so, did it work out or were you left with nothing afterwards?
People look down on this practice, but I think it's fine. You should pass up someone you really like, simply because someone else met you first? No way.
Just don't confuse a genuinely better match with the completely normal "new person" sheen.

Sorry, but is it a relationship with a car or a person were talking about.
I'm sort of contemplating on this one too. Sometimes I don't know if I can communicate with her anymore because I'm more of the ambitious type who wants to personal develops all the time and she's the more "go with the flow" type. And through time, the result of personal development will change how I view things. Before, we would see the same thing.. our perception would be similar. However, now we've grown farther and farther apart in our goals, views, and values.
Logically, I bet everyone would say then break up and find a new one that better suit you. But thats where my emotion sets in! I do not like to break up with someone with a reason like this, but then again you feel you got to.
This is a situation where you know the answer to all the questions..but you still do not know which one to choose. ugh..
Steven, I would say the best thing to do would be to talk to her & see where she is at. Perhaps she feels the same way? Most realationships don't work because of lack of communication.

Was your gf pretty hot when you met her and now she isnt?
Is that what you mean?
