So my boyfriend( I will call him R) has slowly been ghosting me and I don’t know what to do. Even though we are young he is truly my favorite person and I love him so much!! Here is some context…I ended up moving to an entirely different school district. So we do not go to the same high school. We got together at the very end of the 8th grade school year and he was really good about texting me and calling me through the entire summer. When started up again in August, he was good about texting me until winter break and he ghosted me for 2 1/2 weeks! I was really worried about him because it was so sudden. We were texting earlier that morning and then after school ended and we went on winter break he ghosted me. My best friend (14f I will call her F) DOES NOT LIKE HIM!! She is constantly wanting me to break up with him, and we have actually gotten in several fights because of it. Now, some of the point F’s making are really good and I do agree with some of them, like the fact, we haven’t had an actual call since February(what I mean by actual is like a 30 minutes and above call). And we have never actually hung out outside of and I have just recently found out that R hasn’t told his brother that he has been dating me, this is important later. R’s parents are always at work and so they never drive him anywhere and the only time I actually get to see him is when he has his school concerts. And even then his parents don’t show up to support him so I’ve never actually met them. So really the only person that can take him to hang out with me is his brother. But like I said earlier, he hasn’t told his brother that he’s dating me and it’s been a year! I have asked him why he hasn’t told his brother and he said it was because his brother said that he would do some interesting things if R ever got a girlfriend. such as locking me in a room with R and his brother has been just saying some really inappropriate things. So R has been trying to “protect me”. which I do appreciate, but it has also been very annoying when trying to hang out with him. i’m trying to schedule a time where we can do a double date with some of our friends. He has told his parents that he is dating me, but even then they don’t wanna drive him. which I can understand because I live almost 45 minutes away from him and I have lost a lot of friendships because I moved people do not want to drive to where I live. My parents have offered to drive me halfway and even pick him up. But it is so hard to communicate with him because he only text me before school at 8:20 AM.( and even then it is only for about five minutes). I have so many reasons to break up with him for this, but he has been trying to get better about it such as calling me before school for about five minutes, but it is just five minutes and we can’t really have a real conversation.I kind of sounds like all I care about is communication, but it is what I kind of rely on because I can’t see him. To make matters worse I can’t talk to my family( my mom, my stepdad and my step siblings and my siblings) because they all hate him because I’ve been really sad about the fact that he hasn’t been talking to me as much. I also don’t have a very good relationship with my family. My dad is really mean and my mom is OK but even then it’s really hard to talk to her about these kinds of things. I also can’t really talk about things with F because she is so one-sided and really wants me to break up with him and so I’ve turned to reddit lol. I would really like some feedback on how to go about this thank you!! 🫶
