'I'm 14 and madly in love with a classmate'

Dear Diana,
My girlfriend has become lazy and boring. I have to literally force her to be lively and outgoing like she was earlier. I don't know whether we have a future together with the way things are going. I want to break up, but don't have the courage to break her heart. It seems that she is just taking me for granted and our relationship has lost its spark.

Dear Raahil,
Instead of blaming your girlfriend, what have you done to make the relationship lively? Find out why she is behaving in such a manner. There must be something bothering her. Probably your relationship has reached a plateau. Perhaps you don't communicate with each other often enough. Make her realise that your relationship seems to be going towards a dead end and needs to be back on track. Do your bit instead of resorting to a blame game.
