Keira, hugs to you and don’t be too sad. In general, think most guys are like a machine, where you need to press button on them to get things doing. When me n hb before ttc, he always blamed me for not initiating to make out with him. But now, since we have a better motivation, I am always the one very on to bd, as for him, he is quite co-operative but will turn me down after my fertile period coz he always tired and feeling stressed at work. I think by turning soft midway, could be due to his stress level, or perhaps some health issue. There’s a period of time this happened to my hb, but it’s due to a certain pills he was taking, after stopping the pills intake everything goes back to normal.
People always say, ‘disconnect to connect’ which currently the main issues everyone facing due to the interactive gadgets and technology. Do not let this affect you. There’s also saying ‘if you can’t stop him, join him’. My hb also got hooked up with his first iphone when he first bought it, as fascinated with all the apps and games, it resulted us with lesser communications. It hit me badly at first as he was quite secretly with his doings and at times I was even suspecting if he was smsing another women. Lol.. but all just my imagination as when I tried to peek behind him, all he was doing was just playing games, guess he just want some privacy. When I got my HTC phone, I gave him the same treatment, and even set passwords to my phone set and change them weekly just like what he did to his. I guess, slowly, he felt how I felt.. and slowly… he looped me into his games and activities, and asked me to download the same games he was playing. Through there, we started another kind of communication. Since he had explored to a new ‘world’, I just have to keep up and join him. So now, things just keeping the same, we hold on to our own phone at home and share information we saw on FB, youtube etc. Perhaps, you can try going into his ‘world’ to explore what in there, you may find something in common then.
Guys don’t like heart to heart talk… they will just think it’s just another complaint session from we gals. Just like a mother nagging to a child, the more the mother do so, the further the child will go as he/she always find their mothers naggy and irritating. Sometimes, the guys know where exactly the problem lies, but they do not know how to go about it, so prefer to ignore it. Do it another way… like 撒娇or using a softer method. Touch his hands or shoulder while going through the momentum as this will make him focus to you especially when he is playing his phone or watching tv. Do not do this when he is watching his fav. show coz it will just irritate him unless your irritation is in a fun way which he can accept. Take time.. and it will work eventually. For communication, just talk rubbish and nothing serious at first, since the main thing is to build a healthier bonding and r/s. Don’t let him caught you finding fault with him. I realized this method works better than trying to talk to my hb with tears coz it just made him even angrier and pissed when I’m in tears. It doesn’t help as it only spoilt the mood and increased the tension.
