When me and my boyfriend are together I can sense some tension, not like bad but like ackwardness floating in the air. How can I ease this and make it more comfortable for the both of us so we can just unwind and relax with each other and just be ourselves?

Can you think of any reason for this tension? If it's not coming from your side of the relationship then perhaps there's something bothering him. Men don't often like to share their feelings and it can take a while to open up. Ask him how he is and if everything is okay because you have been sensing some tension betweem you and were a little concerned.
See what he says. If he insists there is nothing wrong, don't press the matter. Accept it and let it go for the time being. It might be that nothing is actually wrong or it might be he just doesn't want to talk about it yet.
If that doesn't work, try doing something that you both really enjoy but is also very involved. Go bowling or to a theme park or something similar. If you have some fun together, it should ease any tension or negativity and make you both feel a lot more relaxed. [ Vikki27's advice column | Ask Vikki27 A Question ]
