Boyfriend and I have no connection

Met him at university and we both went home for the summer. I live about 45 minuets away from him...

Were used to seeing each other everyday all day but because of the distance, we see each other once a week.

Because of this, we both have to rely on texting and snap chatting throughout the day.

I’ve discovered that over text he’s kinda boring and we’re lacking in connection big time. It’s like I’m dating another person and it’s making me sad :(

I just don’t feel like he cares all that much to put in the effort to communicate with me. I feel like I pull most of the conversations and he goes hours without talking to me.

Idk what to do to fix this. Should I even try?
