Dear all,

Would you be concerned if your boyfriend stopped calling you pet names and replaced with using your first name instead? I noticed my bf of 8 months as started doing this. Were in a ldr see each other alternative weekends and he still hasn't said he loves me. We have lots of future plans and he spoils me but tbh I would rather have his time then money!!

We communicate via text which have also become less frequent less I initiate.

Thank you.

Hennessy1989 agony auntFrom a personal point of view, after time pet names can become quite irritating, and it's nice to be called your own name once in a while, pet names can be quite childish and maybe he thinks he will be taken more serious He uses your real name

Sageoldguy1465 agony auntHere's a bit of "guy information":

Guys stop using pet names with girls when we are confident that we have them "hooked" and can, therefore, stop being so darn nice to them.... as we were in the first place, in order to hook them...

This can happen as soon as the morning after we bed the lucky lady for the first time.... but it can (still) happen at any time.... depending upon how confident the guy is that he is "safe" in your thoughts...

Good luck....

Maybe its time to put some of the future plans into action if possible.

Relationships need constant attention to keep them alive, if the current situation is left to stand for long enough it becomes boring, because the relationship seems to be going nowhere.

Plans that you make for the future remain just that - "Plans" if never put into action.

I think after 8 months of being together, especially long distance, it would be time to take things to a next level, otherwise things will just fizzle out.

It sounds to me that your boyfriend may not be completely happy with the way things are.
