A long-distance boyfriend eventually reaches a point where he wants more.

It was thrilling in the beginning.

He was totally into the fact that he had finally met someone he could romantically connect with.

The conversations with you were electric, so much better than what he had been experiencing with other girls who lived in his town.

You were a breath of fresh air, something different from what he was stuck with in his town.

It was so much easier for you to get a hold of him back then.

He was ready and available for a text message conversation, phone call, or video chat.

Many a time, he was the one who would initiate several of these text, phone, and video chat conversations.

And he kept these conversations going for hours.

To such an extent, you would fall asleep while talking to him, not out of boredom but because you had already been talking for hours.

Every day was something new in regards to what information you learned about him and what he learned about you, whether it was substantive or frivolous in nature.

Additionally, the sexual chemistry was quickly established as the flirting and teasing ramped up in your conversations with each other too.

It’s no wonder you both got into an exclusive relationship very quickly after all of this interaction.

Once an exclusive relationship was established, it took a few short months before everything changed.

He wasn’t initiating text messages, phone calls, and video chats as much.

All of a sudden, you were the one initiating the bulk of the communication with him.

Whenever you did talk to him, the conversations didn’t last as long as they once did, and the flirting and teasing that used to be such a constant in your past conversations were lacking too.

Soon, getting a reply to your text messages, phone calls, and video chat requests was taking longer.

At first it took a few hours to hear back from him.

But now, it is taking as much as a few days for him to reply to you.

Now you are wondering whether he has suddenly gotten busy or is losing interest.

Sadly, he is losing interest.

If he were merely busy, he would simply readjust his new schedule to fit you in it so that he gets to talk to you.

A long-distance boyfriend who is still interested in his girlfriend will do everything in his power to keep regularly talking to her, even if a readjustment of his schedule inconveniences him.

In your case, he hasn’t made any effort to readjust his schedule to one that enables him to keep regularly communicating with you.

Rather, he is choosing to take longer to reply to your messages and isn’t initiating messages as often as he once did.

This is a strong sign he is losing interest.

At first, the idea of dating someone like you was enticing to him.

You were a breath of fresh air in comparison to the girls who live in his town.

But once the relationship became official, the reality of the long distance set in after a while, and he realized that the lack of your physical presence was far more difficult to handle than he thought it would be.

Although he craves the emotional support that comes with having a relationship partner, he also craves physical intimacy.

Emotional support can be obtained to an extent through text messages, phone calls, and video chats.

You can live off of the emotional support you get from him through text messages, phone calls, and video chats without necessarily requiring all that much physical intimacy as a woman.

For him, a man, it isn’t the same.

There are only so many phone sex conversations and nude photo exchanges he can have with you.

He craves the real thing.

Without consistent physical intimacy, he will inevitably lose interest in you.
