Okay so how much are you seeing your boyfriend ? The amount of time you spend with your boyfriend has a big effect on the relationship, because it determines the feelings between you two, because if you guys are never together, you'll never know how it FEELS to be together. For example, with my boyfriend, he has football EVERY SINGLE DAY of the week, we hardly see eachother, and in the beginning we didn't see eachother for an entire month. It was bad, we were getting angry and frustrated and then.. the next month we made a promise that we'd see eachother AT LEAST one day every week. and now that's what we do. usually its sunday, or saturday and sunday but its still good :] like, we almost broke up because not seeing eachother is hard. you feel like your in a relationship with yourself. but we talked about it, and its great now :] But sometimes talking isn't enough, and okay IF you do hang out with him alot or sometimes, maybe hang out with him more or less and the show your affection in other ways. Maybe make him a mix CD of all the songs that remind you of him or tell him how you feel. When you're with him, make him feel like he's the only guy you see ... tell him things that remind you of him and how you can't wait to see him. If he doesn't feel loved, the relationship will sadly, end. He seems like a guy who this quote applies to, "actions speak louder than words" so SHOW him that you love him. and im not talking about doing anything sexual, im saying like.. when you're with eachother don't just kiss him, look him in the eyes and say, "I really want to kiss you right now." then do it. it's little things like that and holding hands and such that just make it feel like a relationship.
But don't worry :] I'm sure you'll figure it out, and if AFTER all of your effort he STILL doesn't feel it, let him go, and maybe hoe sould be the one trying a little more. because a relationship is a two way street, not one.
good luck, have fun ! hope i helped and if you need anything else, feel free to inbox me :] follow your heart, xox. [ itdependsonyoux3's advice column | Ask itdependsonyoux3 A Question ]
Shaybo20 answered Saturday August 8 2009, 10:36 pm: Relationships can be pretty tricky. The truth is that both parties need to show the other how they feel. Words, well are just words, anyone can say "I Love You", but the only way you know for sure is by the way they show it. For example, A guy say he loves you with all his heart and never wants to loose you. He says he wants to spend the rest of his life with you and only you, but he only comes around maybe once a week, and it is just for a couple of hours. Now, the girl won't feel like he really loves her because he never comes around.
What I am trying to say is that if you really like this guy then prove it to him. I wish I could tell you how but I can't. You need to do what you think will prove it to him. My suggestions are to spend as much time as you can with him. Don't go out with your friends, instead hang out with him. Treat him as good as you can. Make him know that he is your number one. That you care about him very much and do not want to loose him. Good luck. [ Shaybo20's advice column | Ask Shaybo20 A Question ]
