When I have problems with my boyfriend around lack of communication I try to center the conversation around how we feel as individuals and how much our love for each other can improve our lives. I make it clear that in order to feel fulfilled in our relationship I need more open and loving communication. I also make it a conversation about why he doesn't feel like he wants to talk much, as he could have reasons that I don't understand yet. This helps us both feel more supported by giving him to chance to share his struggles and by giving me the affirmation that I need.
I think you need to ask him are you serious about me? Is he actually committed to the relationship and being honest with you about whether he is committed. Communication is vital in a relationship, and the minute you feel like he is not interacting with you or making up excuses you need to think about confronting and thinking deeply about is this the person you want to be with. If they are genuinely busy, that's a different story, but even in that situation are they doing the little they can to keep in touch. Analyse the situation and then confront by asking the q are u serious about me?
Communication is so so so important. You need to address this and tell him how you're feeling in person, don't text him about it. Let him know how you feel. Don't say "you make me feel like", try and say things like "I feel like". Sometimes people genuinely don't realize that they're hurting someone unless it's brought up. It can be really scary bringing up stuff that bugs you, but it's not just gonna fix itself and it needs to be addressed sooner or later. If your boyfriend is receptive and makes it right, great! Good for you guys! But if he doesn't give you the time or attention you deserve, he's not worth it and you're wasting your time. Don't settle for someone that doesn't treat you properly.
