I don't think of myself as a complicated or clingy girl when it comes to relationships. I don't ask for the world, but when getting the attention of my boyfriend feels like pulling teeth, I don't know what to do. When I crave his attention enough, I'll say anything to get him to even just act like he likes me, and I love that. I don't know. Calling him up for him to come over used to be really simple. He'd come over here, and take me out places without me even asking. Now, it's, like yeah, pulling teeth. I'm running out of teeth of his to pull.
Perhaps he needs a little space? Has there been any issues between you two lately?

It's not like I call him up every day or text him all day vying for his attention. I've thought I've been good about giving people space. And no, everything, seemed to be going well, but he's coming to me less and less now. I'm the one instigating everything, when in the beginning, he did the traditional male thing of asking me out. I would've never thought I'd have a chance with him.
Why don't you go over to his place?
anyone would be tired if they're the ones at your beck and call. Go over and make his favorite meal and surprise him a couple times a week. Put in the effort and he'll do the same.

remember you're attracted to that kind of guy. There's plenty of guys that would shower you with the attention YOU ARE CLAIMING TO CRAVE.
I'm a guy who was in something like this situation...
The solution was the one bit of advice I was avoiding.
They don't meet your emotional needs and never will. They will never change. You need to move on. It's painful.

I don't think being a girl gives me a pass for that much attention, not with who I am. I'm socially anxious, and have some obscure interests.

can confirm. my bf is in the same situation as you are right now and i feel suffocated and that makes me pull away even more. you might need more than he can give without going insane.

I'm going out on a limb and say you're taking things for granted and have very little to besides your vagina.
>>17837898
and him having a dick means I can blame his actions on that too then?
>>17837924
That's not my point. Think about what he has to gain by giving you attention, going to your place, spending time with you, going out with you. Maybe you have nothing of interest to him to offer.

I realize men want sex. I put out, and I try to pull him into my interests too and not just be that girl that sits by the side and plays dumb. I hate those bitches so much.

Sigh.
>>17837945
I'm not sure what you're sighing about.
