Avoidant bf 🫱🏻‍🫲🏼 anxious gf
Me and my bf have been dating for 8 months now. It was all so lovely at the start, meeting every weekend, texts calls, vcs every day. Eventually he started being distant due to busy schedules. I called him out, we fixed it.
I thought things would be back to normal in summer vacations. They did not. He started being even more distant. Used to wake up late, then went gaming w friends, then gym and then friends again. We both have kind of strict parents (his mom keeps a location tracker in his phone kinda strict lol, and I’ve seen it so ik it’s fs). Again I said that this is bothering me, he made little efforts but then would fall into the same routine again, without giving me any priority. I eventually got fed up with him and broke up with him one day. It was a huge fight. But then later the same night, he apologised and said he would be better.
College started again, he got busy, I did too. But he was the only one who got avoidant (again) this time it was more serious. He wouldn’t call me, or text me. No updates about his whereabouts either. Again a huge fight came, almost broke up again. He said he’d be better, he’s not
Today tho. I snapped at him. Distanced myself. Didn’t call or text the whole day. I’m so proud of myself for that. But when he texted me just a “hey baby” it all came crashing down. I had such a bad mental breakdown I ended up calling him, he was the only one who could calm me down. He did. He comforted me on the call, said he would come meet me very soon.
I know he’s not cheating on me, his mom knows about me. And tracks his other moves lol. Plus he’s BROKE broke fr, so doesn’t even have the money to take other girls out.
Do you guys think me and him should stay together? It’s mentally exhausting to explain something again and again to someone and then not acting on it. I do get very accusatory when it comes to argument. We apologise and come back together every time. But it’s getting worse every time. What do I do
