Hi there!
I am dating someone for quite some weeks and I have been expressing to him I was confused and not happy about the lack of showing attraction to me with compliments and things like that…
However, it seems like he doesn’t really change anything. Is it possible that some men do this as a tactic?
He recently said he will never give compliments or anything like that. It is not him.
A weird thing is that in the very very very beginning he started out with compliments, so it is weird he says it is not his style since he started out like this.?

Sounds like an asshole…
Does he have other positive features?
It means it’s time to move on
Sounds like typical pick-up artist shit where he creates anxiety in you and manipulates you into seeking his approval by withholding common affection on purpose. Trash.
People try harder even when it is out of character for them early on in relationships, but a lot of people just aren’t the compliments type. Different people express their affection differently. Im not generally a big complimenter with adults unless i realize they are insecure and have a need for regular validation, and even then it’s usually forced.
He has no interest in seeing that your emotional needs are met and he may be intentionally making things worse? Dump this dude.
