HOW OFTEN DO YOU HEAR IT?

so ive been with my bf for a year now ( we are long distance, and have been the whole time)...we visit pretty much every month.

now, my question is this-- i feel that earlier in the relationship he used to tell me that he loved me WAY more than now. i used to get I LOVE YOU TEXTS, and pretty regularly on the phone he would say it as well...pretty much every day/ other day. now, i barely ever hear it. he never says it anymore. in the past 2 weeks, he has said it ONCE....and i feel like its because i said it first. is this his way of not lieing-- maybe he doesnt love me, so he doesnt want to say it?

or is this a normal thing in relationships as time goes by? i sord of hinted at it, and he said that hes comfortable enough in our relationship, not to think about those things. but i just dont get it-- why all of a sudden, has he completly stopped saying it?!

I've been with my boyfriend for 8 months, and he tells me he loves me all the time, when we're together on the weekends he tells me he loves me 50 million times a day and I LOVE that, when we talk on the phone he'll tell me he loves me, etc, and I do the same thing.

Guys do tend to drop the little things that women love as time goes on because they feel they have wooed us, got us and now they dont have to do much of that anymore.

Sometimes men just dont need to say and hear it as much.
