Relationship Stress / by Blueskywaiting

...See more Hi.. my boyfriend and I are together for 2 years now and we are in a long distance relationship again for 3 months now. After he went back to his country, he got so emotional and he started bringing up issues about our relationship, how unhappy he is in our relationship and he feels unloved etc. It caught me off guard because I thought were doing great since we just came from a vacation before he left. He broke up with me eventually, after I tried everything to keep him. I apologize and said I love you for countless times but he still ended it. And he started using the online dating site where we met. He told me he is talking to other women but only as a friend and I didn't believe that so I tried to give him up. He got really mad when I tried to cut off all our contacts and when he thought I was talking to other men, that's the time he took me back. We're together again for a month now. Things were all good but when he started a new job which is physically tiring. He began to distance himself emotionally to me again. I would message him whenever I can and show my affection.. but he stopped returning them. He no longer says I love you or I miss you. He would only text me "gm" "good night" "I'm off to work". I'm really hurt so I tried to tone down my affection because I'm afraid it is causing something bad from him. Then a couple of days ago.. I said good night and I love you. And his reply was " I think we should break up. I don't think were getting better. " He said that he feels unloved and alone again. He said that he is having a hard time because he can't stop thinking that I gave up easily when he broke up with me before. (Which I don't think I am because were not here right now if I gave up). I just don't know what to do anymore. I love him so much but he is making everything harder for both of us. I am doing everything I can to keep him even though I am not getting anything in return. I literally had to message him that I hope he says I love you to me again, someday. He did. But he doesn't show me with his actions anymore. I feel he wants me to do all the work in our relationship from now on. Recently, I just changed my sleeping schedule for him because of time difference we can't talk that much. But when I did, even when he gets off work early, he said that he just want to lie on the couch or do something else. He would make me wait just so I could talk to him. This morning for me, he waited again until he is about to go to sleep before he asked me to call. And I told him, " it's fine we can just talk tomorrow. You have the whole day to call me and we don't want to ruin your sleeping schedule now. " and his got mad at me again. He said that he is a man. He can choose when he wants to talk. <\3 I don't know what to do anymore.
