I will give you my take on this. For a relationship to succeed it must have a certain momentum. It can be fast (I asked my wife to marry me 8 days after I met her), or slow, but the momentum needs to be there. You know, the feeling that things are moving forward, and occasionally up a level. If you have been dating for 22 months then where is the momentum in your relationship. You saw each other two or three days a week. Did you ever sleep over? Did he? You talked two or three times a day. Did you share that mug of cocoa before bed? Have breakfast in the morning? Did you speak about moving the relationship on? Perhaps you wanted to move in with him, or have him move in with you? Maybe you wanted to buy a place together? Do you see where the moentum needs to be? If you were happy with your relationship where it was and didn't try to keep it as a living thing then one of you was going to get bored. You may have been a priority before, but if you don't want to commit more than you already have to your relationship then it's already at its end. If you want him, fight for him a little. do accept second best. But you need to give something too, if you want this to work. I hope you can understand what I have said and all things between these lines that I can't say.

I smell trouble down the road. less face, means a new face. Hit the problem head on and ask the right questions. No one should play second fiddle.

Ask yourself if you really want to end it for good, or if you just want to shock him into appreciating you more and to encourage him to invest more energy in the relationship.
