Why Is My Boyfriend Being Distant Novels & Stories

Maybe just two hours maximum. “Okay.” He nodded curtly at me and went to the bedroom. I sighed as I looked at the blank tv screen. He didn’t even call me by name or ‘Baby girl’. Being with him in this state was difficult. I couldn’t push him for answers, yet I wanted to, so much. How much further was he going to pull himself away from me? Only two days of being around him like this, and I felt I wanted to give up. Yes, I was selfish. Just two days and already giving up? Seemed as though I didn’t love him too much, did it? But I hate secrets. It would be better if he just told me he didn’t love me anymore, or anything, rather than being this distant. It never worked for me with other men. But

I know he’s trying to protect me. I see it in the way he holds himself back. But it still hurts. More than he realizes. I try not to let it get to me. Try to focus on us, on the moments we share, the life we’re building together. And most days… I can. But these past few days… Something feels different. He’s been distant in ways he doesn’t realize. Busier. Spending more time with his father… more meetings, more conversations I’m not a part of.

I felt stronger, I ran longer, and it gave me the boost in confidence that I needed to hold my ground with Ryan. He had become increasingly needy lately and I knew it was my fault, I wasn't great girlfriend material, I was emotionally distant and physically unavailable, so I tried to make more time for him. I made a point of spending at least two nights a week with him where we could just hang out, watch movies, go for a walk, anything to try and reconnect with him, but it always ended the same way.

For the past week, Dameon had grown distant. Now I knew how agonizing he felt when I ignored his texts the whole week after our first kiss. He hardly texts or calls. And when I text or call him, he ignores it. I couldn't help but worry that I had done something wrong or that he was already tired of me.

“I know you’re my boyfriend. It’s fine.” He pressed his lips together, his gaze dropping to the floor for a second before meeting mine again. “No, it’s not fine. I see how he looks at you, Venus, and how you… I don’t know, how you act around him. It bugs the hell out of me. And I feel like you don’t open up to me, not really.” The air between us got heavy, and I felt a knot forming in my throat. He wasn’t wrong—I knew exactly what he meant. Ever since we started dating, I’d kept him at a distance I couldn’t explain. We hadn’t slept together, not once.

He explained. Too late. "It's not like we're divorced, What's with the I want us back?" I uttered inaudibly. "Yeah, we're not divorced but we're distant, you're putting up some cold attitude like not responding to my kisses and trying to maintain space between us." He concluded. "I'm not the one who goes for business trips every now and then." I snapped at him. "You know why I do that." He said defensively. "Yes," I replied " And you know what it costs us."

she confessed gloomily, while nestling Isis in her arms. "But he always stays here with you, he even stopped going to the company for a while to take care of you two. "But he's acting strange, he's staying distant for a while, we don't keep a relationship, this is making me a little uncomfortable now that we can be together, as he's simply refusing me, even if he doesn't show it directly that's what's going on. "Oh he doesn't want to maintain intimate contact anymore is that it?" she asked understanding the situation.

"Ah, Bryan? You do know that I don't like some public display of affection, right?" "I know, but no one's watching," I put my hand on his chest and started pulling myself away. "You knew, yet you're still doing it." "Again, no one's watching," he whispered. I rolled my eyes, "I'm sorry, but I really need to go now. I have something to do," "Why are you being so distant to me lately?" he responded, with a bit of an aggressive tone. My brows furrowed, and my eyes studied his reaction. My instinct didn't like his tone.

"Why have you grown so distant? Why do you keep growing so distant?" Before he proposed to her, he had grown distant and she thought it was because of her big mouth and nothing more. But what if there was an actual problem she wasn't seeing? What if this was the actual Damien? She had been killing herself all these while, thinking it was her fault and he knew about her stupid plans of seducing him for his money and that was why he was acting the way he was, but what if it was just him? What if this is him? "Please, talk to me because this distance you keep creating between us, is killing me..."

Alex tried not to laugh because he was enraged, particularly at Brian. "I'm sorry, bro. I was just trying to joke with you, as usual. You know, I really miss you." He realised Alex was still annoyed at him. "Won't you say anything?" He hit him as he sat next to him. "Okay,okay. I'm sorry for acting in such a way, too. I don't know why I reacted that way because I've always been cool with jokes harder than that from you." Alex said. "Maybe because we've been distant from each other. You know they say if lovers get distant from each other, their bond will surely reduce.
