    I'm not enough
    My boyfriend for five years has lately been acting as if I'm not enough for him and like I'm not what he wants. He listens to other people over me when others talk about me, he acts different to other women and connects with them in a way that I can't, he flirts with his two ex girlfriends and is more friendly to them than me, he doesn't act affectionate towards me anymore, he gets angry and upset with me when things happen that are out of my control, and he never says he loves me. I've tried talking to him but he won't open up, I don't know what to do.

    He sounds like a loser and you can probably do better. I am guessing both of you are fairly young. Was he your first boyfriend?

    How old are you and is this the guy in your other post? 5 years is a long time to be with the same person when you are a teen (I assume) and it may well be time to make some changes, because you both have no doubt changed a lot in those 5 years. No doubt there will be even more changes to come.

    Nothing ever stays the same forever.

    I'm 20 and he is 21, and yes he was

    I'm 20 and he is 21. The boy in my other post is a family member. There have been many changes you're right, and I know there will be, but I didn't know if I should try and work with him through these changes.

    Takes TWO willing partners to work through the changes life throws at you.

    Read what you just wrote and ask yourself if this is a person you would consider dating. You forgot that it is up to you, too. Don't choose someone like this. You think it will be better in five more years, or will you be five years further into this trap? Move on.
