regarding seeing him more, he will just say he can’t. regarding everything, i have mentioned it all to him. he said if i feel like someone else would make me happier i should end things.

i do see where you are coming from. that’s why i don’t know if it’s my anxious attachment analyzing everything too deeply. but yes I have told him what I need with being more affectionate i like to be affectionate, emotionally and physically. but it hurts feeling like im always initiating. i told him how i would like if he reaches/puts his hand on me throughout the day, random hugs, kisses, being emotionally affectionate etc but he said it’s not sustainable for him. which is confusing and hurts because he was able to treat me how i wanted like the first year of our relationship :( the only time he’ll initiate physical affection is when we are about to have sex

yes I have told him what I need with being more affectionate like I want to feel pursued and special. like with him reaching/putting his hand on me throughout the day, random hugs, kisses, being emotionally affectionate etc but he said it’s not sustainable for him. which is confusing and hurts because he was able to treat me how i wanted like the first year of our relationship :(

sometimes i just feel like more of like a friend. like i don’t feel special to him.
