I really need advice 💔

So me and my bf have been together for a little under a year now. Lately I've noticed he has been feeling a little distant from me, and I wasn't quite sure why. He seemed to be getting irritated more frequently and just impatient. So I decided to talk with him about it. No arguing just trying to explain how I felt and wondering if maybe he could help me understand why or if there really was something wrong. He said lately he has just been feeling really annoyed with me. And when I tried to ask him why he said he just hasn't had a lot of patience with me lately. So I then continued to ask him what I can do or what things he needs from me to work on to help fix this situation. His response is that I need to figure it out on my own. That I rely on people to tell me what to do in different situations too often. But I really feel like I need to rely on people because I just don't want to do the wrong thing. I really love this guy and I want to do whatever is necessary to keep him around because I care about him. I just don't know what to do. He said maybe because we have been together for a little while that our relationship is getting boring. But I don't know what do do to help spice things up. Please someone help me.
