So my relationship is going down the shitter. We've been together for precisely 1 year & 8 months. I'm about 23 & he just turned 21. I honestly love him & we are extremely close. I've known for a little while now that it just isn't going to work out, but I think he's been clueless about how I feel. Recently, however, we've both admitted we're going through a bad spell. Now here's the thing: he's been nagging me to "put more effort into our relationship," which means he feels that he makes more of an effort to call or come over (not true). He stayed over last Friday night & has not called me since...which is really unusual since we talk or see each other every day, & he stays over about 4 nights a week. Its because he is so damn stubborn that I won't call him & I know he won't call me; I know it sounds absolutely juvenile, but I think its messed up & I don't know what to do. Any advice? xoxo cortnee
That sucks a lot. I'm a guy so I coudl understand about the stubborness. I always feel odd calling, but sometimes it's necessary. But in this case, just give him a call, it wouldn't hurt anything. And then hopefully he'll see you are trying to "put more effort" into the relationship. I'd just call him up to see how everything is. And hopefully, everything will be ok for a bit.
