My boyfriend and I have been dating for about 6 months, and lately I feel as if I'm losing him very slowly. Everyday he seems less and less interested in me. (Example) He gets off the phone more often without a reason, and isn't passionate when we kiss. I'm wondering if he's slipping through my grip, or is there a way for me to stop this...

But please, do not see this as any reflection on you. Nor should you try to stop this. Relationships are a dynamic between two people. Too often if things cool off, one wonders what they have done wrong. Normally it would be absolutely nothing. The fact is that the relationship, the dynamic rubber band that bonds the two of you, may just break. It isn't the fault of either one, just the way things are sometimes. If this didn't happen, we would all end up happily ever after with our bf/gf from when we were 14. The fact is, almost nobody does. They try a relationship which works for a while and then it doesn't any longer. Then it is time for another. Hopefully before too long you find one that works forever for you. But the worst thing you can do is try and hang onto something once it is gone. See how things go and if it gets worse, talk to him honestly about it and ask him how he feels. If you get the answer I suspect, then just move on with no regrets, no guilt and no blame for either of you. Good luck. [ Altazuma's advice column | Ask Altazuma A Question ]
