Asking Too Much?
Posted: 01-08-08 06:17am

Hey, I have a question.

A few months ago I got out of a really serious 3,5 year relationship. It took me some time to get over it and start dating again. And now I finally find myself in a relationship with a guy whom I really like. We have been going out for 2 months now, and even though that isn't too long the way he acts makes me feel like we've been going out for a way longer time.

I'm not a high maintenance girl but I do expect at least one sign of life per day, especially since we live an hour apart and both have busy social life's and uni which can be pretty hectic too. So the first month, or even before that, he would message every day and I really had no doubt if he liked me or not I knew he did. Now in the second month he hardly sends any messages. And the days that I see him I have to compensate with days of no contact at all. And to be honest it just makes me feel sad and lonely. The messages he does send have a different tone to them and when I ask him what is wrong he just says "I just don't have that much to tell you when I see you for a day", while he is like the most talk active guy you will ever meet. The most things we do have something involved with family or friends, the only alone time I get with him is when I sleep over. And his sleeping pattern is so odd because he goes out a lot during weekdays that he mostly falls asleep quickly. So not much talking going on there either..

Is it normal that guys act this way so early in a relationship? I'm not even sure anymore if asking for one sign of life per day is asking too much, while I never had to ask this of any other guy before. I'm just confused as I really really like this guy and he was the one who really helped me get over my ex. But with so little alone time, so little contact outside of seeing each other and generally not being able to see each other a lot it just make me feel more miserable then happy. I already told him a bit about this and so far that hasn't really worked. I secretly don't want to break up as I really like him but at the same time I'm not really happy in this relationship, I have no clue what to do anymore. Sad

I would go with your feeling, you already sense something has changed. and you said you are not happy in this relationship.. I would flat out tell him what you feel. And find out what he feels. What have you got to lose? You don't like it the way it is, so either get it corrected or move on before you invest to much more time on someone that seems to be backing off from you. Ask him!
