I just want to feel like a priority

First off I’d like to say that what I’m about to rant about pales in comparison to all of the amazing things my boyfriend has done for me like taking care of me when my illness get bad and even helping me pay for medication. He is my future and everything I’ve ever wanted. It’s just lately he’s been irresponsible and inconsiderate and I don’t know what’s gotten into him.

He gets on his phone out of habit when we’re in the middle of a serious conversation or I’m trying to tell him I’m excited about something.

He cancels plans with me after I’ve said no to other offers and in the late afternoon so there’s no time to make other plans. And it’s usually because he either forgot about plans he made or he found something better to do.

He doesn’t tell me about rules his mom has when we’re home from college so when we break them I look incredibly disrespectful when I didn’t know I was even breaking a rule.

Lastly, I feel like we’re really out of sync. He jokes when I try to be serious and sometimes he thinks I’m upset when I’m joking.

I think we’re almost out of the woods with this, but I’m so tired. We used to be so seamless.
