Dear Lori and Jeff,<\/span><\/p>\n

My boyfriend and I met a year ago through mutual friends. I wasn\u2019t interested in dating anyone at the time, but he put an incredible amount of effort into convincing me to give him a chance. He sent me cute little gifts, surprised me at work with lunch, and talked about the places he\u2019d like to take me. I caved and eventually agreed to date him. The first few months together were exactly what he promised: romantic dates, thoughtful surprises and fun adventures. The energy he was putting into us really inspired me to bring my best self as well. But after I became invested in the relationship things started to shift. He gradually got less romantic, and now the tables have turned so I\u2019m the one that is always having to plan things. For months he hasn\u2019t been the romantic guy he sold himself as. What do I do?<\/p>\n

Signed,<\/p>\n

He\u2019s Phoning It In<\/p>\n
