nearly as much as she used to..everything else seems to be the same, when we're together our relationship seems the same as it used to and she finally said i love you on the phone last night before I did for the first time before..is her not texting/calling as much a sign of something negative? should i address this? thanks guys

You need to chillax man. This is very normal in pretty much every relationship. You need to realize that the two of you may absolutely not get addicted to each other. This will result in you getting bored of each other as well.

Shit happens. You must give her space and do the same thing back. You will only make it worse if you keep texting and calling 24/7.

Counter attack this by doing the same thing. Use her weapon against her. Don't text or call as much, but at the same time - keep a frequent and healthy contact. You're not ignoring her but merely and slightly freezing her out.

Remember that shit like this will happen in relationships. You need to accept this fact and live with it.

Zentrode.

Thing is that I hardly EVER text/call her first, i cant remember the last time I called her that wasnt returning a missed call from her..so I cant really give her more space than I am right now, so any other suggestions? thanks guys

Perhaps she got irritated that she always have to contact you? that she always has to make contact... i think thats the problem... she wants you to intiate too.. and in fact.. you should be the one.. but.. well.. it should be 50/50.. eventhough even for myself its hard.. cause i know my GF will always intiate..

Anyway.. Either that or she was a bit shocked of the "love you" thing..

Has she had past BF? If not, perhaps she imagined the first "love you" she would get from a guy would have been magical.. but you did it on the phone.. hmm..

Even if thats the problem, nothing bad will happen.. try to intiate, if that doesent help.. well perhaps its the love you that was the problem..

you could also try to jokingly confront her with this problem.. but dont contront her seriously

rather than confronting her over not calling as much, why not just call her when you feel like a chat?

im saying that she said love you before i did for the first time not the other way around

Exactly every relationship requires doubt most likely she is trying to create this doubt either consciously or subconsciously. If the relationship is to close then it will push you guys apart
