I'm fed up with my boyfriend

I'm fed up with my boyfriend of three years. He's a sweetheart, he makes me laugh, and he's always there for me. I don't know why, but I've felt so disconnected from him and I've been getting irritated for no reason at all.<br><br>We had an argument last night, over what felt like nothing. It started as a conversation, but it got heated when he didn't listen to me and I got defensive. He said he was sorry, but I could tell he wasn't.<br><br>I've been thinking a lot about our relationship lately. We've been together for three years, but it feels like nothing is happening. We're not moving forward, we're not doing anything exciting together, and we're not even having the best sex. I feel like I'm just going through the motions with him.<br><br>I've tried to talk to my family and friends about this, but they don't seem to understand. They tell me that I'm being too picky, or that I need to be more patient. But I don't feel like I'm being picky at all. I just want to feel like I'm in a healthy and fulfilling relationship.<br><br>I don't know what to do. I love my boyfriend, but I feel like I'm at a crossroads. I don't want to break up with him, but I also don't want to continue feeling like this. I hope that things can get better between us.<br><br>Edit: I feel like I need to add that we are in our 30 and he has 1 kid (13 yo) and I have 1 kid (15 yo) so I don't think that this is a maturity issue but many have pointed that out.
