A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend is being very distant and i dont know what to do.

Ive been with my boyfriend for a year and a half. So far everything has been hunky dory! Hes fab! I love him, he loves me and were planning to buy a house together next year so we both appear committed.

We have lived together in a rented flat (he was there before and i moved in) since the summer. Everything was going great. We've both gone to stay with our parents over Christmas as they are from opposite ends of the country we have been away 10 days so far and will be both back home on saturday.

A few days before he left he seemed a bit down and distant.

Were usually very close both physically and emotionally but he was pushing me away when i asked why he denied he was acting any different. Since we left each other i have initiated all contact. This has only been one text every other day. His responses are limited and he does not respond with any questions about myself.

Last year when he was away (i know we had only been together 6 months) but he skyped me every night and we would talk for hours. I know this changes as relationships progress but im not sure what to do or how to deal with this?

It all seems very out of the blue. Ive asked him again if everything's ok and he seems distant and hes stated he's fine.

I know he's seeing his family and i understand that i just know there has been a change and this has really upset/confused me

SeaGreen agony auntI'm not surprised your confused or upset. However the best advice is to give him space and not expect contact with him. Don't ignore him but keep the contact low enough that your not bothering him.

Then on Saturday confront him in person and go from there.
