Question - (9 October 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 10 October 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

hi ive been together with my boyfriend for one and half years, we were good together, but for the last four months or so i do not feel as though we are the same.

we would text each other at least ten times per day, and he would ring me when he could during the day. we would see each other every other weekend due to the distance between us, and that was never a problem.

lately though, we text morning and night, and maybe a call during the day from him, i have tried to ring him during the day but he always seems to be too busy, i have spoken to him about how i feel and said that i need the contact in between us seeing each other but nothing changed. he text me tonight to say that he will ring me soon as he was finished some work he had to do online, i waited for two hours then text him was he done as i could ring him, he rang me back and said that he sorry he nevr rang as he was watching tv and got too into it.

it may seem like not that important what i have wrote but this seems to be happening more often than not, him being too busy or watching tv. is he backing off from me?

am i being silly?

i feel as though i dont mean much to him anymore

A female reader, pinktopaz United States +, writes (10 October 2009):

To be honest, he may be becoming slightly distant because you are being a little clingy/needy. I think it's fairly reasonable to talk in the morning, night, and sometimes inbetween. Talking too much leads to a boring relationship, what do you really have to talk about toward the end of the night when you've already spoken 8 times earlier that day?

I think you should back off a little, let him contact you most of the time. Although I like to hear from a boyfriend, if I told him that I was busy doing something and he called me 2 hours later because I had not called him yet, I would start to become extremely annoyed. Just chill out a bit, I'm sure you still mean a lot to him, just give him some room to breathe.
