Boyfriend
So me and my boyfriend have been together for about 14 months. We don’t see each other that much because he has school 5 days a week and I work too, plus he lives a good 40 mins away. Anyway, I keep bringing up the fact that I’m lonely and I hate seeing him once a week. I know he has obligations and I’m not trying to get in the way or that, I’m just saying how I feel in general. Every time I bring it up though, he makes me feel like the bad guy because he has important things going on. And on top of not seeing each other that much, sometimes he takes hours to text me back. I’ve brought this up many times too and I hate to sound like clingy but it bothers me. He keeps saying how he thinks he’s doing much better at getting back to me but it still takes him forever sometimes. He doesn’t work, just is in school. He still lives at home and know he does things around the house for his family too, but I just feel like he doesn’t have time for me and I don’t feel important to him. He says I’m being dramatic and I overthink too much. Also, I just said to him yesterday how I feel like he doesn’t care about not being able to see me. He replied that I can’t assume how he feels, which is true and makes sense. But he never says or does anything to make me think otherwise. I’m always the one saying anything about it, he never does, and it just makes me feel like he doesn’t care that much. He says he loves me and I believe him but I don’t feel like a priority to him at all. And it really bothers me that in the beginning of our relationship, he’d text me constantly and always ask to see me. I said this to him too once and he just said every couple has a honeymoon phase. Didn’t make me feel any better about it. Also, we haven’t had sex since the beginning of January and the times we’ve been together since then he hasn’t even tried to do anything when he stays over. Our sex life is good but I feel like he just doesn’t care anymore.
Sorry for the long post, I’m just venting. Am I making too big of a deal about it or would this concern you too?
