Long distance

I have a bit of a dilemma.. I’ve been with my boyfriend for two years, we’ve done one year long distance as he moved for work.

We’ve had our ups and downs throughout the year. We’re fine when we are together, everything is lovely.

The only issue is that recently he’s been mentioning that our conversations over the phone have been boring. I’ve been feeling like I’m trying to carry the conversations and he’s not inputting as much effort. He said it’s not my fault, but the conversations do get repetitive considering the fact I’m usually the first one to call and I just mainly want to see how his day has been without having a proper “reason” for a call.

I’m not sure what to do to help the situation and would appreciate some advice. I feel like I’m quite a clingy person and probably need more attention than him. I sometimes wore that if we stop taking as often, the relationship will stop working. I just really love him and I don’t want things to end, especially since the main issue we seem to be having is the distance.
