A guy who has stopped communicating with you has dropped you.

If this happened quite suddenly without any real warning, he dropped you on account of someone else of higher priority coming into his life.

This person could be this other girl.

However, you should be able to tell by how he has been acting.

Less communication or none at all is typically a good place to start.

If he used to communicate with you all the time but has slowed or stopped entirely, this is the first sign.

A guy who still communicates but has much shorter conversations with you than usual, is another sign that he has dropped you.

When he talks to you but doesn’t really go into much detail about anything, he is showing you that he wants to move on and do other things with his time that doesn’t include you.

In other words, he is impatient.

He is having that conversation believing that he has to, as opposed to him wanting to.

The conversations have very little to do with you.

He doesn’t care too much about how your day went or how you are feeling about a particular issue.

You try to tell him something like this and he barely addresses it.

It is almost as though you didn’t even mention it.

This is him showing you that he is not as emotionally invested in you as he once was.

You now notice him talking to some other girl on a consistent basis.

Perhaps you even hear him talking to this girl on the phone often.

She works with him and they have lunches together.

You know that they hang out often outside of work or school.

But on the other hand, he rarely hangs out with you like he used.

In fact, he hasn’t initiated a date in a while.

You always seem to be the one who initiates dates.

You are getting weary of this.

Now you see that he is actually spending more time with this other girl instead of you.

This lets you know that he has dropped you.

In trying to figure out what happened, it is a very frustrating process with no real resolution.

There could be a number of reasons why he dropped you for this other girl.

Those reasons have nothing to do with you personally.

He got bored with you.

He had some interest in you at first but not that much.

You were never the person he ideally saw himself dating.

He went along with dating you because you were the best option at the time.

However, this other girl shows up and he realizes that this is actually the girl he is most attracted to.

He drops you as a result and starts dating her.

In a scenario like this, you were not at fault for what happened.

He simply got someone that he preferred over you.

You shouldn’t take this personally or dwell on it.

You would become a very bitter person if you did.

Simply accept the situation and move on with your life.
