Bf doesn’t talk to me AT ALL

r/

My bf(28m) and I (26f) have been dating for maybe two months but due to VERY unfortunate circumstances, I had to move for my job and he said “hey I hate my job, I have no friends, I have no family here, why don’t I move where you’re going” and I said hell yeah cause I really like him!!

Day one of move in; he just stops talking. I take him on the tour of the place (I found it, signed the lease all by myself, he only saw pictures) and he just didn’t say or do anything. Didn’t thank me for finding the place and paying for the deposits or starting to furnish the place and it really put me down.

I come home from work and will say hi and talk about my day and he just doesn’t respond ? No grunts or looks at me like just ignores me. I tell him it hurts my feelings and all he says is “I’m dealing with stuff I don’t have the energy to talk”. I get we all go through stuff but why cant he talk to me about that or at least put in effort when I initiate the conversation.

He thinks it’s normal to go days without talking. He just sits in the second bedroom watching tv or playing guitar. He acts like a ghost. He won’t even let me know when he’s leaving outside. No communication at all. Anytime I bring it up to him he just starts talking about “everything I need to work on” and says I nitpick him. I tell him I’m not trying to I’m just trying to say what’s on my mind and how I feel and I wish he would just hear me and sit with it instead of fighting me.I’ve had to learn to just talk to myself or my animals or call my mom but it sucks I can’t talk to the one person I truly really really want to talk to. He used to talk to me. I miss his voice.

Has anyone expierence this?

TL;DR! Bf of two months won’t talk to me from simple conversations to mental health problems and acts like a ghost in my home. I try to bring it up but he turns it around on me so there’s never a resolution cause he won’t take accountability. Is this normal or just him?

    Depending on his share of the tent, you have either a roommate or a freeloader. Definitely not a boyfriend.

    In the future, it’s usually wise to wait (much) longer before moving in with someone, especially if it involves lease signing. Now you have someone in your house you have to get out, and a house and a lease you have to deal with.
