Strawberry Letter - Subject: Love Is Not Enough For Me

Dear Steve and Shirley,

My boyfriend and I are not compatible at all and I am not sure why I keep trying to make our relationship work. He says he loves me. I love him, but I'm not as in love with him as I used to be. We've been together five years and we have two children, but we argue so much! We're completely opposite of each other. He likes rap music, I like R&B. I'm educated, he's not. I'm a goal-achiever, he just creates goals and never follows thru with them. I cook, he eats. I have a car, he doesn't. He likes hanging with his family, I would rather go on dates with just him. He refuses to compromise on what he likes to do, so we end up doing whatever he wants to do. I can’t stand his family because they are not positive role models for my children, but I let them go over there as much as possible. I've been forced to do things that go against my morals, but I’ve done it for this man. I feel like I’m losing myself and turning into a whole different kind of woman. I have told him that I’m not happy and I suggested counseling, but he says counseling is for white people. Now I find myself yelling at him more and more and I can’t find a nice way to express myself anymore. Is it me or him that's the problem? I want it to work out so we can remain together for the children, but I also realize that I didn’t really know this man before I fell in love with him. I’m feeling stuck and unhappy. Do you think this man can change or should I move on and find happiness with someone I’m compatible with?
