My boyfriend and I are going through a tough time in our relationship. I love him a lot, but I feel insecure because he has many female friends. We’re at the same level at university, and since we got back, he’s been acting distant. I’ve tried talking to him about it, but it feels like he’s not listening. He’s always online, but he doesn’t make time for me. I’m tired of feeling this way, and I don’t want to break up with him like I have in the past. I keep thinking there might be someone else, but he says there isn’t. He makes me happy, but I feel like I’ve pushed him away. I overthink things a lot, and it’s exhausting. He has a female friend from before we met, and they still talk and flirt a lot. It bothers me, but I’ve decided to keep quiet for now and hope things get better between us.
I’m literally 22 and he’s 23. I still feel like I’m losing him to her, and it hurts. He reassures me, but I don’t believe him. Now that he’s distant, I’m hurt. But seriously, I have told him multiple times that if he wants to be with her, he should be with her and leave me alone. I’m hurt because it seems like he prefers her to me. Men, please tell her when you know you don’t want a girl anymore. Please, don’t lead her on. Tell her you aren’t feeling the relationship anymore. I feel so hurt, and my birthday’s tomorrow, and he’s being distant. Men are scum.
