He's not acting like an idiot. He IS an idiot. You can't make a guy like you more unless u cook up a mind control device. Either confront him with full contact (with slapping) or just talk to him. Works for me.

let's use a story to tell some advice :

my [ex] boyfriend and i were dating since august. and it was all great in the beginning. we were really happy. then as we got into the relationship -- he started acting like he didn't care. just like how your boyfriend is acting. sad thing is, i put up with him. i would wait around for him and wait for his call and put up with his stupid attitude. so one day we got into a fight and he told me all the things that were wrong with me, and stupid me -- i tried to fix everything, meaning i changed myself. then a few days later he did something so stupid and it really bothered me -- and i tried to confront him and he ended up saying that we should "take a break." note : if a guy ever tells you that, break up with him then and there. so we were on break for almost a month. i waited around for him to come back to me for almost a month. and then, you know what happened. i asked how long we were going to be on this break -- and he ended up dumping me. there really isn't anything you can do to make him want to spend time with you more. talking would be the best thing. if you really care about him, then put up with it. so good luck, don't hurt yourself and don't do anything stupid.

okay bye, have a nice day :)
<33 jessica

Why don't you want to break up with him? Is it the fact that you love the feeling you get when he doesn't call you back? The fact that you guys rarely hang out? First off, think about why you really like him. And they should be good reasons, not just because "he's hott". And then talk to him about how you feel. And don't always wait around for him to call you so that you two can hang out. You should call too. You can't just get your boyfriend to like you more. He's gotta like you for you. If he doesn't, then its not worth it. Hope I helped.

sometimes the best thing to do is nothing.... like don't be calling him all the time, because You are Too Busy with your life. when he does call, make sure you've got at least 3 positive things in your head to say to him - like: 1 went to the mall and had a great time, 2 we (meaning your gf's) went to the movies and laughed so hard over it... see what I mean? Then, don't ask him what he's been up to. he'll get curious, re-interested cause you're having fun without him. the best thing you can do is NOT call him.

Express your feelings with your boyfreind.. if you talk things out with him maybe he will become aware of your feelings and maybe change his attude.. if things dont work out like that maybe you should try connecting with him more untill he gets the point<33

maybe he's hiding something, you can try asking him "why are you acting this way to me whatever it is just tell me please"

if hes still not telling you i dont know whats going on try asking one of his friends you have to figure this out..

g00d luck

I'm sorry. You can't *make* him like you more. And it wouldn't be healthy for you to try.

If you suck up to him and beg him to like you, you'll accomplish two things:

1. He'll despise you, and will probably leave you before too long, and,

2. You'll lose your self-respect. People without self-respect aren't attractive or appealing; they're pathetic. Without self-respect, you're nothing.

And that's no way to live.

So you need to get the whole IDEA of getting him to like you out of your head. Try to live more for yourself. Do your own thing. Let HIM think about ways to get you to like HIM more - you could even play a little hard-to-get!

It might not win him back - to be honest, it sounds like he's heading towards a break-up with you no matter what you do - but it couldn't hurt.

I'm awfully sorry to tell you all this, because I'm sure it isn't pleasant to hear. But it's the truth. You need to live more for yourself, because, paradoxically, it will make you more attractive to others.

Good luck!
