Dealing with a bored boyfriend is probably one of the most challenging hurdles you have to get past through in your relationship. More often than not, you don't notice he's checked out for some time already until you actually take a closer look. So if you've got that nagging feeling inside of you but you aren't quite sure if you're just being paranoid or he's really gotten bored, here are ten tell-tale signs that tell you it's the latter.
1. He doesn't initiate a conversation with you.
If you always find yourself the first one to bring up a topic when you're together, if he lets you talk and he doesn't have much to say when you ask for what he thinks, and if he is obviously feigning interest to whatever it is that you're talking about, you can be sure his mind is absent. Either he's got personal issues or hes lost interest. It's up to you to find out.
2. He ignores you a lot lately.
So much that it hurts your heart and crushes your being, but you're afraid to confront him because his answer may confirm your suspicion.
3. There's that inexplicably awkward silence when you're together.
You've lost the drive to find other new things to talk about. He notices that but he doesn't even do a thing about it. It's like he's okay with things between you not being okay. You ask him what he wants but he just gives you the cold shoulder.
4. He's spending lesser time with you.
This is not bad in general, especially if he's busy as a bee with other important things in his life: his career, family, personal issues, etc. However, if he doesn't get to spend quality time with you and he only calls you up so he can get his quick fix, it's time to ask yourself if you can handle such kind of serious trouble.
5. He spends more time on his phone.
Not that there's anything wrong with that, especially if it's important matters that he's attending to. However, if this pattern continues and he doesn't even show the slightest care to explain why he's more interested on his phone than on you, you can be sure the boredom is eating him up alive.
6. He doesn't compliment you like before.
You just had your hair nicely done at the salon and you look radiant and refreshed, thanks to your skin doctor. However, you still failed to get his undivided attention despite the effort youve exerted in making him notice you. If this happens, know that its not because of you but its him losing interest for reasons only him will know.
7. You don't argue with a passion anymore.
Petty fights and arguments here and there are a part of a healthy relationship. So if he doesn't fight with you the same way he did before, it may mean that he's not that as invested in the relationship as when you were just a new couple. If he just avoids the conflict or just let you win without a word, you can be sure as hell that he's gotten bored to the nth level.
8. Or make love the way you did before.
If all he does is lay on his back and wait for you to give him a head but is not even willing to go down on you or do anything that will make you be a happy girlfriend, that means he's also lost his excitement with being intimate with you.
9. The last time he took you out for a date was ages ago.
And when you've brought it up to him, it's as if he doesn't get what your crystal clear point is. He makes excuses and he tells you he'll plan it out but it never happens.
10. He spits out sarcastic and disappointed remarks about your relationship from time to time.
There's no way to miss the sign if the words came directly from the horse's mouth. So when he starts to talk to you this way but wouldn't elaborate when you ask him to, he's officially checked out.
The Ultimate Sign: He Opens Up About The Idea of Breaking Up
He may not be man enough to actually cut ties with you but if he opens up about going separate ways, it means that he thought about being single. He somehow fantasized about a life where he's free to do everything he can to fill that void you used to fill for him before. So when he does, be prepared. It's a decision you two both need to agree on ASAP or you can just leave him without a word since he never bothered to have his balls on anyway. Your call.
