writes: My boyfriend of over a year now is no longer very affectionate. He says he isn't muchy gushy and doesn't like kissing. He just did it to make me be with him in the beginning of the relationship. Whenever I want to talk about our relationship, he responds by saying " I don't feel like talking about this right now." It really hurts me. Is the love gone or are some men just like that? Whenever I try to break up or leave he has these long passages or professed love for me though. Why does it take me leaving to receive love?

 It sounds like there's an underlying issue... Did you guys start dating as soon as he got out of another relationship? He might have been hurt pretty badly and might be holding a lot in... Work with him. It's either that, or he's fallen out of love with you, or he's just bad at showing it until it's come to a drastic point...

 When he's got you and he's comfortable he doesn't feel the need to put forth any effort, this is who he really is. When you are leaving then he does the whole romantic bit because he doesn't want you to go. Its not who he is naturally, but he knows it's what you want and he can be that way if he has to. And yes some men are just like this. Either you accept that he isn't affectionate and loving on a regular basis or you leave and find someone who has more of what you want. If you stay you can try to get him to work harder on being affectionate at times but it'll always be a battle and something that doesn't come natural to him.
