Op I’m sorry everyone is convinced that he’s cheating on you. I’m so surprised that people aren’t considering how much energy can be drained by family. Even enjoying being with family can be exhausting. Running around, doing errands, cooking, trying to be civil. Don’t make a mistake that you shouldn’t be upset, and if you feel like you need more attention you need to talk about it.

Think about it like this, if you plan on a future with him and you have a family and a household together, would you accept this type of behavior? This is the type of behavior you will get from this person.

If you can’t talk to him/ are afraid to then you need to communicate that to him. Communication is key in a relationship (in any relationship tbh) but especially in a romantic one. If it takes time to convince him to communicate more, then that’s what you have to do and it’s obviously worth it. But if you try and work on this for weeks/months and nothing has changed, then it’s time to be concerned. You just have to talk to him and get more used to expressing your feelings and thoughts to him

In the grand scheme of things a year and a half is nothing. If he’s showing signs like this so early on it will only get worse. Don’t ignore red flags, this isn’t a carnival.

Ok that’s what I was thinking. I probably wouldn’t care as much but we go long distance in a year and he’s so bad at texting this stuff just stresses me out so bad

Could’ve met an old friend, a new one, could have someone else there with him and his family instead of you. Never believe what they say. It’s either a half truth or a complete lie.

They’re his family. Not your friends. They’ll always take his side and cover for him. Speaking from experience.

Sorry your past relationships were bad but I trust him even if I’m upset with him for being a bad texter. He wouldn’t cheat and I know it sounds crazy to say that definitively but I know his sister wouldn’t support that either
