will things go back to normal

Question

My bf and I were doing great (were 17 almost 18) until his mom found out we had sex (last summer) and things have been going downhill since. We fought a lot, we broke up for a couple weeks in may. And it was really bad. Now we're together again and it's gonna be our year and a half on Saturday. 
He Says he still loves me so much and I make him happy, but it's not the same. He used to always call me beautiful and go out of his way to do so many things for me, I mean he still calls me beautiful but not as often. We still kinda argue and stuff sometimes. And he can't Always hang out now. 
I'm scared he's falling out of love with me. Like he clearly still cares, but cares about the wrong things i guess. 
I'm terrified things won't go back to normal (us hanging out a lot, not arguing a lot, and. Aunt normal texting convos) part of me thinks it's doomed part of me thinks it's gonna be ok. But it's so hard to be positive when I feel so sad bc we barely text and idk it's not the same
I've talked to him about it and he says everything good with us but idk
What do I do? I want the old us back. 
I'm scared I'm gonna lose him for good, I love him and I'll always have a special place in my heart for him bc he's my first love

Answer

You'll never have the "old us" back. Relationships change over time, and the dynamics can even change from month to month. The best thing you could do is get him to talk about the relationship. Instead of asking dead-end questions like "do you think our relationship is okay?", ask things like "what can I do differently to help the relationship?". Start with more specifics, like how to help him feel more loved, or how to improve communication, or how to make him feel like a man. There's always room to grow and change, so it should never be stagnant. Don't rely on things being "good". Always strive to make things better :)

Answer

Give it more time. You have the whole summer together so maybe once school is over it'll be easier to spend more time together. It's going to be different now because of what happened. I know it's hard because I've been through a similar situation with my ex but if he says things are good sometimes they just are but if you have a gut feeling about something, trust it!!! Your gut feeling is always right!! I hope this was helpful. Good luck!!

Answer

I've been in situations like this (watching my boyfriend lose feelings for me) and your situation could be different, but for me the longer I stayed in the relationship the worst things got. I pretended things were fine when they weren't and I should've ended it way earlier than when it did. If things only get worse or just don't get better with time I would break up because there's no point to be together if it makes you more sad than happy. Hope this helped. (I know it is hard!)
