text: how can i tell? my boyfriend (26) and i (24) have been together for about 6 months now. in the beginning, he was great! he'd say and do sweet things for me. but since we moved in together (about a month ago) he stopped doing all the sweet nice things he used to do. how can i tell if something is wrong or if he just thinks since we live together he doesnt need to do all the mushy stuff anymore? i've tried talking to him about it, but when i do he quickly says "yes i am happy with you" then it's end of discussion. he doesnt want to go any further into the conversation. i am truely in love with him but i need to know whether or not i should be patient or just assume this relationship was only "good while it lasted". reality check!! little one.  this is where you and he find comfort in your relationship.  you're not dating anymore.  you are a couple.  98% of all men, once they get in their comfort zone, we relax.  if we're right with everything, then we start to concentrate on more important stuff like taking care of you and the family we will make.  we are men, the providers.  it's in our nature.  we are trained to be.  is he there with you?  does he come home at the same time everyday?  are you together on the weekends?  if you answer no to any of these questions, then have concerns. i love my wife and will do whatever it takes to make her happy.  i do still talk silly with her.  i hold her hand, open the door for her.  i always tell her i love her.  i will take her anywhere she would like to go.  i don't, however, buy her flowers everytime we go out.   once in awhile, i'll surprise her. the dating is over and the relationship begins.  good luck.
