We’ve been dating for two months and lived together for about 1.5 months. We moved in over the Christmas period as none of us could see our family and didn’t want to spend it alone. Then we both quite enjoyed it so stayed together. Recently, we started arguing and realized the issue. Both of us are trying to solve it, and he, along with some of our friends, think us living together is most likely creating these arguments. So, I went back to my own apartment.
The problem was (and still is) that before we lived together, he didn’t really gauge my interest too much. He doesn’t sit on his phone and make conversation; he just plays his games and does his own things – and I completely get that. But when in person, it runs more smoothly. He’ll still play games, etc., but sometimes we do things together like watching movies and sleeping together, so it feels more intimate.
The thing is, now that we are apart, he’s like he was in the beginning, and it’s making me unhappy. Even when I’ve come to visit him, it’s still the same thing. He’ll do his own thing and come to bed with me after finishing his games. I do think he really loves me and has said it a lot, but we’ve kind of run out of things to talk about or do together. He completely avoids going outside, and I’ve tried to find things for us to do at home when we visit each other, but it’s a bit difficult for me to keep thinking of things.
This is why I’d rather not live apart, but he’s expressed his need for space, and I should respect it. However, is there anything we can do to make life more exciting at the moment? He’s told me all his past relationships have been like this and no one has had an issue except me. He also tried to blame it on cultural differences。
TLDR： boyfriend and i’s relationship has become less interesting and is being added to by suddenly living apart, what do i do?
