It's like people who have relationship crisis' or mid life crisis' and feel that they have to drop everything they currently have and go for something new.
The problem is that doesn't work. You buy a new house, you buy a new car, you get a new spouse, you get a different job, in the end, the common denominator that never changes is you.
So in order to fix my relationship -ultimately- I would have to change.
Am I being judgmental towards my girlfriend?

I want to change not just for her, but for myself...I want to become a better person.
