Always remember tha for a relationship to work, it takes two. Ask him if there is something going on or bothering him. Try to talk things out instead of building up negative thoughts. Communication is the most important thing in a relationship.

first thing, why is he ignoring you for? is he mad about you or is he busy at work/hobbies/seeing friends? if its the second one, I would say even the best relationships need some break for each person to be with itself, and its enriching for the relationship to tell the other what you did after a day of each one doing something fun by theirselves. if he is ignoring you to make you mad, punish you, or to show you his feelings, then I would say the only way to solve anything is through communication, bottling up negative feelings wont be healthy for either of you

Well, First thing try to find is he intended to ignore you or just distracted with troubles he has, If there is troubles try to listen about his day and try being supportive, If he intended to ignore you try to see it from his point of view, Maybe you are being unreasonable, And if he is being a plain jerk then you must remind him that yore feeling are as important as his and he should act like it and not take you for granted.

One thing you can do is bring it to his attention. Not in a mean or aggressive way but calmly and nicely bring it to his attention and tell him how it makes you feel and you and him can give eachother suggestions on how you and him can solve the issue.

You should take a step back and think about what the reasoning could be, then try to talk to him calmly.

Find out what you did wrong and fix it, otherwise if its something casual he is doing then just dont think about it and move on with your life normally, the truth will prevail by itself

Let your boyfriend know that you feel ignored and why, and that you are telling him so that you can maybe find a way to feel better together, such as, "I feel ignored when you don't answer me back, and it makes me feel worthless. I know you probably don't intend to make me feel bad, but I'd like to find a way we can both feel better somehow." Try to stay calm, honest, and open-minded. It may be better to wait until a quiet moment to have this conversation. In moments where you feel ignored and do not feel comfortable talking to the person about it, it's okay to think it through on your own too. Recognize that you feel ignored, and think about what action or lack of action is triggering that feeling. Think about how you felt just before you perceived you were being ignored. Think about specifically what you would have liked to happen instead. These questions may provide good tools for future conversations on the subject, or they may shed light on underlying issues. Good luck! You deserve to feel heard and validated too.

The fact that he is ignoring you might just mean that he needs space. It's not good for you and your mate to be together all the time.

Take yourself out for something special, a pedicure, a nice dinner, a movie you've wanted to see...really anything that makes you feel good! It's important that we treat ourselves well, especially when others seem to be overlooking our needs.

Something else! Anything else. Don't let it get to you. Focus on staying positive and when he's ready to talk, talk if you want too. Tell him it upsets you when he ignores you and figure out a way together to overcome it.
