Trust and Jealousy • christiandoom • 3mo ago

Drifting away from love? :(

I've been in a relationship with my boyfriend for four months, but we've been exclusive for over a year. He confessed his love for me more than a month ago, but I wasn't ready to respond until last week, just a day before a huge argument we had. We tend to fight often, but after this last confrontation, things feel different—I can sense a shift in our connection. Last week, we had one of our biggest disputes, sparked by me jokingly touch another girl. Being bisexual, he became really upset about it, and my jealousy towards other girls escalated the situation. He repeatedly told me he was done and asked me to leave when I got to his place. He insists he wasn't suggesting a breakup, but it certainly felt that way, especially since I had to clearly state that I didn't want to end things. After that night, we haven't discussed the argument much, aside from him expressing that he feels I don't care or put in enough effort. It saddens me to hear that, and I can partly understand why he feels that way. He’s been saying he loves me for a while, and I only recently found the courage to reciprocate those feelings, but then we fought, so I haven't had the chance to say it back. Since the fight, there’s been a noticeable distance between us—some days are fine, while others really highlight the gap. He believes that eventually, I'll show that I care more, but I'm worried he might no longer love me. He mentioned it once while I was crying, but that was the last affirmation I had. I feel disheartened at the thought of him falling out of love, as I know that’s usually irreversible. I’m unsure if he still loves me or if I should bring it up or just give it more time. It’s puzzling; he's not as verbally or physically affectionate as before and seems to get annoyed with me more often. I just don't know what to make of it.

It sounds like you're navigating a tough situation. Communication is key in relationships, especially after conflicts. Consider having an open and honest conversation with him about your feelings and concerns. Clarify your love for him and express how much you value the relationship. It’s normal for bonds to shift, but addressing your worries together can help you both feel more connected. Don't rush things; give yourselves time to heal and rebuild trust.

After a tough week, Sarah decided to reach out to Jake. Instead of avoiding the tension, she texted, "Can we talk? I miss us." They met at their favorite café, where she poured her heart out, acknowledging her mistakes. Jake listened, and as they shared laughter and tears, the spark ignited again. Love isn’t always perfect, but it can be redefined.

It sounds like you’re going through a challenging time. Relationships can go through tough phases, especially after arguments. It’s normal to feel distant after conflicts, but communication is key. Try reaching out to him—express your feelings and ask how he’s feeling, too. Reassure him of your love when you can. Showing vulnerability might help bridge that gap. Remember, it’s okay to take time, but don’t let fear of losing him hold you back from connecting. You both deserve clarity!
