My bf has been dry lately and I’m worried he doesn’t like me but he did tell me in beginning he was bad txter and dry. And even when he says he’s not mad I still think he is

It very much finds every little thing like if he looks neutral or doesn’t show much emotion I feel like he doesn’t like me

I used to think these things a lot. Sounds like part of it can be ROCD, but also like you said people have different texting styles and some people just know how to communicate better in person

Hey. I get you; really! I was there too! But what helped me, more than everything else, is understanding that "liking me or not" it's not my choice. I can't decide if he likes me, and I can't decide that he doesn't like me. Keep searching for hint, proofs, rassicuration, won't give you answers! And that's because we all have different ways to express love! Maby for you texting a lot means "I like you and I'm thinking at you" but for him chatting means nothing! There are a lot of way to express love! Quality time, acts of service, gifts, phisical touch... I used to confront my bf like "you did (or more often you didn't do) this, that is a proof that you are not in love with me right?" And the only conclusion of this kind of fight is taking distance You can't choose for him! But if he stay, it's because he keeps choosing you! Try to understand why that particular action bothered you! And than maby talk with your bf about the deepest motivation! An example: I love spending time with my bf. But sometimes he told me that he wants some days for studying. I used to take this rejection as a "I don't like you". But the real thing is that spending time togheter makes me feel wanted and connected, and i'm a little disappointed that he prefer studying than me. I talked with him about that, and we find a compromise!

I feel bad bringing it up bc Ik that’s just how he is and I shouldn’t be changing him and Ik it’s just my anxiety trying to make problems

Try to acknowledge why you feel like that! NOT why you get anxious uh! Try in the first place to recognise what emotion the "thing" that he did make you feel! (Emotions like sad, mad, overwhelmed; not perception like a failure, not loved etc) allow yourself to feel that emotions, but at the same time understand why the thing is important to you! Remember that feeling something different from "the sparkle" isn't a confirmation that it's the wrong relationship!! Love is a choice, we choose to stay, and that's it!

Wdym try to awknoledge why I feel like that ? Do you think he doesn’t like me I don’t understand ahha sorry
