writes: Okay so let me start this off by saying for the last few years my boyfriend hasn't really had any friends, and has basically only had me to hang out with. Anyway, he moved away for school a few days ago and is having a great time with all his new housemates. He's only been in the house for 3 days, but he's already telling me he's SUPER busy and like, hasn't made time to talk to me at all. I realize he hasn't had friends for years and this must be really new and exciting for him, but how can i make sure when it's all said and done he's EXCITED to come home to me? Currently he's barely talking to me and we haven't even spoken on the phone once. (After not going more than 4 days in 2 years without seeing each other andd those days we didn't see each other we literally talked all day anyway). I don't know what to do, I understand he's living a new life now but, its so hard being on the other end. Is there a way to keep him interested/ remember how great we were!? And maybe even get him to talk to me more often? Reply to this Question Share |

It's understandable that he's excited about these new friends - everyone gets excited when someone new comes into their life. But he still needs to remember to consider your feelings.
Good luck and keep us posted! x
