So I usually don’t post things like this but I feel like this is a safe enough space to be able to get real advice from other women. This might be a little long but I’m going to try and summarize it. My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and 10 months, our 2 year is in January. Recently he left for a business trip and it was really hard because he did an awful job at communicating to me.

Before he left he refused to talk to me about it and was definitely pushing me away. I figured it was just an unhealthy way of dealing with leaving so I just sucked it up and let him go. It’s been 2 weeks and he’s been a complete douche bag to me. He barely talks to me at all, even when he’s supposedly off of work. He purposely doesn’t answer me and then used Instagram or snaps people while leaving me on delivered. I’ve tried my best to be supportive and positive but it’s really getting to me. He’s been acting really suspicious. When we do call it’s usually because I end up caving and calling him. When we’re on the phone he seriously doesn’t even listen to me. He’s usually talking over me to other people and laughing with someone else and suddenly has to go within 5 minutes. It’s embarrassing.

One time I swore I heard girls on the other end and when someone asked him who he was talking to he said “someone” which is obviously weird and when I asked him about it he denied it and said that he called me his girlfriend. I’ve tried to talk to him about it but he wants nothing to do with the conversation. If he knows that I’m upset he will leave me on delivered until the end of the day to avoid it. It really hurts because he’s clearly pushing me out for some reason and the only thing I could think of is him talking to someone else. He keeps telling me that he’s not but I would rather have him tell me the truth than be oblivious. He’s not coming back for 6 months you guys! Also my mom revealed to me that she noticed I’ve been stressed since I come home to visit from college. She decided to text him about it, kindly, just saying that she thinks we should be honest with each other. He never responded to her, which isn’t like him.

Also, his friend who I barely speak to had just called me out of the blue and was telling me that my boyfriend cares about me?? It was really weird and I’m not sure what to think of it.

If anyone has any advice or just their opinions it would be greatly appreciated. It’s hard because the only real answers I can get are from him and he just won’t talk to me.
