Why my boyfriend wont stop ignoring me, and do the first step?

Me and my boyfriend have been dating for 2 app. and we had ups and downs in this relationship, but 2 months ago he traveled to study abroad,at first we were like talking a lot to eachtoher, but now we talk but not so often, I am the one who is always sending him text messages and always doing the first step( well I’ve done this from the beggining of the relationhsip),but lately he doesnt reply on my messages,and he ignores me…he NEVER does the first step,but he loves me I am sure..he always tells me that he doesnt want me to wait for him, cz he knows its going to be really hard…but I tell him, no ill wait because I love you, but he feels guilty..so thats why I feel like he’s pushing me away for this reason..so what should I do?should I ignore him for couple of days and wait for him to talk to me?or what should I do??!! HELP!!

Answer #1

Yes, make him feel what you are feeling…If he doesn’t answer the call then when he calls back don’t answer his call.. Make him miss you…play hard to get (if he is doing the same). Then he’ll be wondering “where is she? what is she doing?” and you can say “well that’s exactly how I feel when I can’t reach you”.

Answer #2

Honestly…you are blinded by your love for him. When he tells you he doesn’t want you to wait, after he has already gone and you already had been communicating well while he was gone it sounds like he may have met someone else and is seeing her behind your back. For the pure fact that he doesn’t want to hurt you, he hasn’t told you, but him going missing in action a lot lately isn’t a good sign and you can’t be oblivious or naieve. I am not saying he doesn’t love you, because sometimes these types of situations have nothing to do with love, but more of conveinence. The distance is going to be hard and although you are putting in the effort to keep your relationship in good standing he doesn’t seem to be putting in the same effort, and why do you want to waste your time while young on him when you really don’t know what he is doing other than working??? You could possibly meet someone who is even better for you and is around not abroad. I am not saying dump him because if you love him obviously that is not the advice you want to hear, but all I am saying is it sounds like there is a possibility he is trying to end the relationship. Out of guilt he’d rather ignore you until you break up with him you know? Either way just be smart about it and don’t be naieve. Good luck and for your sake I hope he isn’t seeing other people and you two work everything out.

Answer #3

um hey! I meant by not waiting when he told me, beofre he wanted to travel, but I always tell him ill wait, he just doesnt want me to suffer that’s why he tells me these stuff..I am sure he loves me, but I need attention from him..u know what I me, how could I get it?by ignoring him? or what should I do?

Answer #4

honestly I think you should ignore him for awhile, see what he does, if he loves you he will try talking to you, if not then theres most likely a problem and you should get rid of him and move on.
