Husband became distant after visiting me- -am i overthinking?
Assalamu alaikum everyone,
I really need some advice because I feel confused and honestly a bit hurt.
My husband recently visited me and spent 10 days with me. Everything felt normal and good while he was here. But ever since he went back to the US (it’s been about 7 days now), his behavior has changed.
He barely texts me anymore and has only called me twice since he left. Before, he would message me more often, especially in the morning, but now I wake up with nothing. What bothers me more is that I can see he’s active sometimes when I send a message, or even after, but he doesn’t open it or reply.
When I asked him about it, he said he wants to focus more on work and that he’s busy. I understand that, but I feel like sending a quick message or calling for a few minutes isn’t that hard, especially in a long-distance marriage.
I don’t want to come across as needy or like I’m begging for attention, but at the same time, I feel like something is off and it’s making me overthink.
P.S : nothing bad happened while he was here. We had a great time and he kept saying how grateful he was for me. It was literally amazing.
Am I overreacting? How should I handle this in a healthy and respectful way?
