We’ve all been there. You’ve been dating a guy for a while and things were going great, but now you think you see signs he’s losing interest.
You talked every day, went on dates, and maybe even met each other’s friends and family. But suddenly, something changed.
He’s not as attentive as he used to be, and you’re starting to wonder if he’s losing interest in you.
It’s not a fun feeling, but it’s important to recognize the signs and address them head-on.
If you have a feeling in your gut that things aren’t how they used to be, here are some common signs that he might be losing interest in you.
He’s not as communicative as before
One of the most obvious signs that he’s losing interest is a decrease in communication with you.
If he used to text or call you every day and now you’re lucky to get a text back, it might be a sign that he’s not as invested in the relationship anymore.
Of course, it’s important to keep in mind that everyone has different communication styles, so try not to jump to conclusions too quickly.
He Cancels Plans or Doesn’t Make an Effort to See You
If he’s suddenly too busy to make plans with you or he’s canceling last minute, it could be a sign that he’s losing interest.
When someone is really into you, they’ll make an effort to spend time with you and prioritize your relationship.
I was talking to this man who would make these plans with me and when it was time for us to finalize the time and place, I wouldn’t hear from him until the next day – with no explanation or apology.
Not acceptable and I figured that if he didn’t want to spend time with me, there was no reason for me to continue talking to him.
He’s Not as Affectionate as Before
If he used to be affectionate with you – holding your hand, hugging you, or even just complimenting you – and now he’s not, this could be a sign that his feelings have changed.
I know we can get complacent once we’ve been in a relationship for a while and life can get in the way. However, if you feel that he’s not showing you any affection as before, then it’s possible he’s giving it to someone else.
Of course, it’s important to remember that everyone has different love languages, so make sure you’re paying attention to how he’s showing affection (or lack thereof).
He’s Not Interested in Talking About the Future
If he’s suddenly hesitant to talk about future plans, it could be one of the signs that he’s losing interest and isn’t as invested in the relationship.
He may avoid talking to you about the future because he doesn’t see you in it. My ex always talked about his future plans and I began to notice that none of them included me.
When someone is really into you, they’ll usually be excited to talk about future plans together – whether that’s a vacation or simply making plans for the weekend.
He’s Not Introducing You to His Friends or Family
If you’ve been dating for a while and he hasn’t introduced you to his friends or family, this could be a sign that he’s not as serious about the relationship as you are.
Of course, everyone moves at their own pace, so don’t jump to conclusions too quickly. But if he’s actively avoiding introducing you to the important people in his life, it could be a red flag.
This is especially true if he’s close with his family and friends. If he values you and your relationship, he would want to introduce you to this part of his life.
Steps to take if you feel that he’s losing interest in you.
So, what should you do if you’re seeing these signs he’s losing interest?
First and foremost, it’s important to communicate with him.

Ask him if everything is okay and if there’s anything he wants to talk about. It’s possible that he’s going through a rough patch or dealing with personal issues that he hasn’t shared with you.
However, if you’ve talked to him and you’re still seeing the signs, it might be time to reevaluate the relationship.

I’m confused. What is he sitting and looking at?
Long-distance relationships are complicated, especially if you’re in different countries. You will have to discuss your situation and see what steps you will take going forward. Are you still in love? Are you satisfied and happy? Maybe the two of you should come up with an agreement. Tell him you need more attention and communication. If possible, one of you may have to move closer to the other.
