I am 17 and he is nearly 20 , this whole year all he does is work and ONLY lately like the past few weeks he's hardly been talking to me , im always the one to call him , I always have to message him first or instigate to see him. I've talked to him about him not seeing me and talking to me , but it hasn't changed. I don't want to leave him but I feel soo exhausted , when we do talk its fine we laugh and talk about everything . I just dnt know what to do. I really wish he'd start appreciating me

Well you say you can't leave him but why not just stop chasing him for a while.

You don't have to speak to him or text him every day. Just leave him for a few days and see what happens.

If he is stressed out with work (and lets face it, he may be working all the hours he can because he may lose his job soon. Many people are.) then he needs you to chill out a bit and give him space.

If you are tired then give yourself a bit of a rest and go out with your girlfriends instead of worrying about him. If you feel like you want to text him then text some random person you haven't spoken to in ages and have a chat with them instead.

Be a cool girlfriend rather than another thing on his list of worries and just chill out.

Good Luck!! xx

LAdiiSuPahSt4r agony auntYour 17 and he is nearly 20. Which means he is now at the point in his life where he actually gets his life together. Becoming 20 is a big step, because your no longer in school, don't live with your parents , and you have to learn to support your self. So he is dealing with life settlement (that's what I call it) so give him some time and don't give up hope. And if it is really over board try to take him to a place ( vacation ) maybe so he can cool out
