...See more hello 7 cups. i'm new, been struggling lately, idk if it's in my head or if i'm onto something. super long story short my high school sweet heart and i got engaged in december of 2018. august of 2019 marked 6 years together. we had a lot of rough patches throughout high school but we survived them always seeming to come out stronger than before. we have an apartment together for the time being until we find/buy a house. he works out of state (long distance i know. ugh.) but we make it work. he's gone for work for about 1-2 months at a time and will come home for about 1 week. he works long hours (18 a day infact). and i hold two jobs as well. we make time to talk to each other but here lately it feels more as if i'm talking to a brother rather than my fiancé. distance is hard. very hard. but we always end the nights with an i love you no matter what. when he comes home things are good the first couple of days. we normally have the very first day he's home alone and then after that his friend stays with us for the remainder of his time off. i don't have a problem with a friend or him being present because i enjoy all the company. but i would like to have more alone time with my man than just one day out of the one week we get out of two months. he doesn't seem as interested in the "bedroom activity" as before. it's always the same routine we no longer spice it up or change anything like old times. when i try to mention anything about us being engaged or trying to mention the wedding he changes the topic and just says he wants to take things easy. but we've been engaged for almost a year and haven't said one word about any of it per him. he hasn't called me pretty, beautiful, etc. in over 7 months...(yes men, us ladies keep track of these little things because they mean more to us then you will ever know). he's not a very spoken emotional person. he does/shows feelings through actions or gestures. he is one to know what he wants and will not stick around if he doesn't want it. which is good reassurance for our relationship because if he didn't want to be with me he would obviously leave. i know he loves me and cares about me. i just don't know what to do anymore. things are changing and i don't know why and i don't like it. but i need help/opinions/tips/advice/experience...something........anything..thanks in advance :(
