I had the same EXACT problem only my ex bf was 18. I think both of these guys just dont know what to do in a relationship or they are not ready. What I did was give him an ultimatum either we spent more time together or we are done. If you really want to be treated right, talk to him and say either you get what you want or you will walk away.

PsyCookie agony auntYou have to talk to him. Ask him what's wrong with him and what has made him change around you.

Probably he's now feeling the stress on being a relationship and he doesn't know how to act. If your age is correct and your boyfriend is around your age, well this is kind of expected. At your age, guys and girls are barely starting on the dating thing and most guys and girls don't know how to act. Some guys/girls are just shy around other people. If he has barely dated around, try to understand him better; talk to him.

Don't jump into conclusions yet. Talk to him and ask him to be sincere with you. Try to be smart in here. If you think that he will keep on treating you like that, then try to see if you can stand it until he is comfortable around you.

Remember to talk to him yourself. You can't expect something to be done right unless you do it yourself, so go ahead and do this.

Good luck and I hope your problem is resolved.

Three weeks is a little early to be analyzing a relationship give it some time and follow your heart not someone else's opinion
