writes: My boyfriend and I have only been going out a few weeks, (i know im probably being silly about this but i want to be sure). we talked a ton before we went out (we were friends for 2 years). so over the past 5 weeks or so we would talk every night, once for eight hours straight, we'd talk on the phone and skype pretty frequently. Now we're going out and we'd still talk a lot, but this past 4 days we haven't talked much at all. for two days we didnt talk at all, the day after we went to see a movie and it was great, that was yesterday. today we talked for about 20 minutes over facebook, but i initiated the conversation. I went back on later and he was on, but he logged off after a couple minutes. because im so used to talking to him for hours every day this seems weird :( am i overreacting or is he losing interest?

Only you can know the answer to this.... but it seems as if you where suffocating eachother a little. You both need your time alone as much as you need your time together. This is still a very, very new relationship, and it takes a while to work out what suits you both communications wise. I spent two years with a guy once, and sometimes we would go two weeks without talking, it was just what suited us.
Talk to him about what you feel is happening, and a good way to do it is to take turns starting communication. Let him start a conversation with you one time, and then the next time you message him. That way you both get some space.
