Being distant

You could asking him if everything’s ok, although in my experience if things are going cold you don’t get clear feedback initially. To be honest if you can I would see how it goes for a bit, it might be nothing. Keep self sufficient, enthusiastic if you are treated right, but not needy and up for a preemptive dumping if bad treatment rears it’s ugly head

It's the first time he's been like this so that's why I'm struggling with it. I'm not sure if I can leave it for a bit, I think this is something I need to get off my chest asap. But I know when I see him I'll just bottle it. I don't want to push him away by being so full on.

There’s no harm in asking if everything’s ok, why not. If he’s says nothing wrong accept it and see how things go. I would agree with not being full on, somehow or other being self assured and confident is the best way

So do you think not bringing it up is the best thing to do?

Like you, I would probably have to bring it up. But I would always want to retain a show of self confidence

How would I do that?

Accept what he says, have other interests than going out with him, don’t over message, be totally non possessive and preemptively dump at any hint of bad treatment. Probably it nothing anyway and just the relationship settling down

How do I bring it up without seeming over bearing? Or is that not possible?

We haven’t been in touch as much this week, we’ve both been so busy. How’re things, everything ok?

How did it go?
