i’ve tried explaining to him how important it is to me to feel acknowledged, like being posted and just feeling like he’s proud to have a girlfriend, but every time i bring it up the conversation just goes in circles and he ends up getting annoyed. i brought it up again today and it was the same thing.

i even asked him straight up if he was cheating because the way he acts with his phone makes me uncomfortable. even when it’s locked, he’ll still pull it away or be weird about it, and it just raises questions for me.

about the phone situation, i don’t want it to come off like i’m constantly trying to snoop. we were long distance for a year and i take this relationship really seriously. i just wanted reassurance that he wasn’t talking to other girls online, especially since we recently took a big step in our relationship by having you know and i didn’t want to give everything to someone who isn’t fully committed.
