Am I expecting too much?
My boyfriend and I moved in together about two months ago. Lately, he's been so absorbed in his own thing that I can barely get a word in. He basically works off his phone so he's just always on it, or always working. I mean, I'm busy too but I don't think a conversation when I get home is too much to ask for. We're rarely alone because our house mate is almost always home. When we are alone, he usually wants to do something like watch a movie together. I just want to talk because we've been so distant lately. When we go to bed then he'll put his phone away so he'll be totally in it when talking to me but he tends to fall asleep instantly when going to bed. I know he still loves me because he tells me most mornings (before he starts to ignore me for the day, lol). I just don't feel like we're connecting right now. I know he's noticed some thing's up with me because I've been avoiding him the last two days (because I'm sick of being ignored, I can be ignored in a different room if that's what he wants to do) so if I say anything to him, he'll say I'm the one being distant. So today he's come in seeing I'm upset and said things like "Oh, it's cold out today!" and he'll think that's enough, like ignoring me for two weeks can be fixed with a little bit of small talk? 😒 I know that's not helping maybe if I responded to the small talk we can get somewhere but I just feel so lonely right now and I'm not in the mood to fake a smile right now.
Is this what it's supposed to be like? Am I expecting too much?
