My long distance boyfriend (gay) and I have been going out for a little over 5 months. We've talked nearly everyday as much as we could. More recently he's said everything felt repetitive and predictable. He said this is how our conversation go
me: good morning
Him:hey
Me:whatchya doing?
Him:nada
Me:did you eat yet babe?
Him:nope
Me: (30 second pause or so)
Him;K
Then it all goes downhill from there. I feel like he doesn't tell me what he's doing and that contributes to the same conversation over and over again. He said "it's starting to get boring and I'm getting bored and it might not work" he said he meant talking on the phone might not work Not our relationship. but it still scares me that he'll get too bored and want to breakup. He wants me to be "crazy" and spontaneous/unpredictable but I'm just not sure how being that we're so far away from each other. Please help me to be "crazy" I don't want to lose him.

If that's how all of your conversations are going pretty much, then he isn't putting too much effort into this either. He can't criticize you when he's doing the exact opposite of what he's asking from you.

First off, I want to say that long-distance is very hard to do. There is only so much you can do long-distance and it's hard to be "crazy" and unpredictable when all you are doing is talking on the phone or texting. That being said, it may very well be boring and predictable, especially since if you are talking nearly every single day for 5 months. What exactly is there to say every day? I don't know. That is just how I view that.

Also, if you ask me, he is being hypocritical. He is criticizing you, but it doesn't seem like he is making any sort of effort to even have a conversation with you. If he wants things to be less predictable, why doesn't he change it up? Why doesn't attempt to say give more than simple, one-word responses? If he is that bothered by it, why isn't he doing anything about it? He can't criticize you for it when he isn't doing attempting to change it. It goes both ways.

I actually find this quite confusing myself. I don't understand what exactly he wants from you and what he needs you to do. Maybe that is something you can ask him/talk to him about? That may be a tad weird, but it's worth a shot, I think.
