I think that’s def a red flag, ESPECIALLY because you’ve already discussed this with him and ESPECIALLY bc yall have been together for two years. Obvi people have rough patches but it sounds like this is a little more than that, and if you have communicated your needs and hes not willing to compromise or discuss deeper that issue will continue to snowball for you internally the longer it goes on

w his friends to win over his affection. he'll get super tired and seem kinda bored w me. or he'll be on his phone hella but when he doesn't hesitate to stay out late on a weekday w his friends, super energetic, and i can never get a text back or an update throughout the whole time he's hanging out. like ya go have fun but like update me at least once so ik ur not dead bro. its so hard for him to open up to me for some reason even tho ive been trying to initiate deeper convos w him but has no

issue telling his whole fucking life story to someone he's known for like 3 months. mind you we've been dating for almost 2 years now☠️ i've talked to him about this before but he can't understand me and continues to do so. i'm not asking for him to stop being w his friends but i just want to feel equally important. idk sometimes he's just so affectionate and then he'll be so distant and idk what he's ever thinking

NEVER lower your standards or needs for a man based on anything, i know that yall being together for two years can feel like it’s binding you to him, but if he’s not making you feel seen, loved, heard, and appreciated then it might be time to look elsewhere if his actions continue to stay the same. You deserve so much, don’t let a man devalue you
