My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 3 months. Well at first things were greatly walking on air and love was everywhere but now as we've known each other more....we talk less than before. I don't mean we quarrel because we never had and he's really nice. It's just that he no longer sends me those romantic intimate texts like he used to and sometimes we go out and we seldom talk. I know he misses me...but is this normal? I'm afraid the relationship will go rocky. My boyfriend is not as expressive as I am and he's shy to show affection in public whereas I'm very expressive and I don't mind hugging and kissing him in shopping malls. Please help. Thanks.

There is always the "honeymoon" phase, that does mellow after a time. However, that doesn't mean he doesn't love or care about it. Your boyfriend probably believes that physical expression is private and he doesn't feel comfortable having the world watch him display it. I think this is normal. It's actually distasteful to display long kisses or to make out in public. A relationship is private, and no one needs to see what a couple wants to do with each other in public. If it's just a simple hug or kiss that's fine, and no big deal to most. Your boyfriend may feel different though. He may want to keep your love all to himself and not share it with anyone. I would talk to him about it and get his point of view.

I used to have a bf like that. first I didn't mind and all, but after a couple of years a really missed him. His thoughts and his hugs.suddendly we were like sister and brother. It was hard for me to split up, but i had to do it.
Do a bit of thinking. Do you think you don't mind in a few years?
I don't want you to split up with him, I just would from what I know from my expierience.
Deep down I always kne, that I m not happy.
very luckily I am now with the best BF ever

If he used to be more expressive then.... sorry... but he might not like you the way he used to. maybe you should confront him and ask him yourself. Ask him if he's Ok, or him there's something wrong. GOOD LUCK TO YOU!
EDIT! he also might be going through some tough times. Is there any school, work, or family problems in his life right now? you should definitely find out and talk to him, PRONTO!

My friend had the same problem when she thought things were changing...She first, confronted him about the changes she thinks he's making. That its not as romantic as it was before and it seems he doesn't care. It might be a guy thing, but maybe he IS feeling changes?

that happened in my last relationship too, i was always more expressive then he was and it drove me crazy wondering why things were changing. It might just be a sign that hes gotten used to your relationship so he doesnt think he needs to 'impress' you anymore. Just try talking to him about how you are feeling, maybe it will help.

this tends to happen in relationships as time goes on. a couple develops a different type of bond where it isnt as romantic but stable and boring. so yeh it is common

this is normal in some ways you should be the one to send the next romantic little text
