Is my bf sick of me??? Help please! :(((

Hey I really need some help right now because I literally don't know what to do!

I've been with my bf for like almost 8 months and it's all been really good. We get on so well and he's just so amazing and I never thought I would have to post this!!

Since I met him we've been in like constant communication, I mean, it makes my day. We talk about everything and anything and it's never forced. HOWEVER, yesterday he seemed to take longer to reply. Also, the amount of x's that he put in his messages have been reduced lately. I thought it was a mistype but now I think it was deliberate :frown:

.

I texted him twice earlier today, trying to casually ask if he got my messages, but he hasn't replied at all. This is so not like him! I really don't know what to do! I don't want to bother him but I'm worried he's upset with me... What should I do?!

Well at this point in the relationship it could be that the honeymoon phase has ended and he's settling into a less enthusiastic routine. Or maybe he's just busier at the moment.

Hard to say. Deterioration in communication can be a concern but isn't necessarily so. My advice would be not to panic. Just see what it's like when next you see him. Getting more intense when you fear a breakup, as I have done in the past, isn't a good strategy. Counter intuitively the more relaxed and non possessive you are the stronger the attraction.

Chill, he's probably busy.

The whole 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ,<3 <£<3<£<££3,,3£<£<' does get boring after a while, my longest lasting relationships have been the most casual ones with less of the cutsey tone and more of a really close friend tone. That's just me though.

Yeah seriously it means nothing, I never put an 'x' at the end of any of my messages.
He's probably busy doing something and will reply when he has the time

Jeez, cut the guy some slack. He's allowed to have a life as well as you, isn't he?

Maybe... but I know he hasn't been busy so I can't help but worry!

He has told me that I'm the most amazing person he's ever met though... could be a lie, I guess.

Maybe he's maturing in terms of the relationship. The talking 24/7, instant replies and spam of X's at the end of a message is fun at first and a good way of showing interest, but after a while it's just unnecessary. I think he's just more comfortable in the relationship, like he's eased into it. The honeymoon phase is over and now you can be in a proper relationship.
