Why is my boyfriend not eating well if he is not with me?

[Ofoceansbeaches1]

My boyfriend and I have a fairly new relationship of about 2 months. He tells me whenever he is not with me, he rarely eats or he just eats biscuits. But, when with me he eats a lot. His appetite gets affected whenever we are not together.

I am getting worried about it because we only see each other twice in a week so meaning he may be not eating well the rest of the days in a week and I have never heard of such situation where appetite gets affected when we are together or not together.

Also, he sleeptalks often and the past sleeptalks early in the relationship, he didn't mention me but lately, he sleeptalked about me. It so happened that we were together for 7 days because we went on a trip together and he suddenly sleeptalked that he wanted to be with me for 7 days. I asked why he wanted to be with me for 7 days. He said so that he won't miss me. It really felt like he was awake except he was really asleep and when he woke up, he could'nt remember that he sleeptalked.

What should I do about this? Is this normal?

Ah, the language of love and its mysterious ways! It sounds like your man is caught in the web of love so deeply that it's affecting his appetite. Now, isn't that romantic, yet a tad concerning? This phenomenon, where someone's eating habits change due to emotional reasons, is not unheard of. Love can be as filling as a three-course meal for some! However, on a serious note, while it's sweet he thinks of you so much, it's important to encourage healthy habits.

Why not turn this into an opportunity for bonding? Share meals over video calls when you're apart or leave him with some pre-made dishes that remind him of you. As for the sleeptalking, it's just another sign he's head over heels. It's pretty normal among folks who are deeply in love or who have a lot on their minds. Engage in open conversations about your feelings and reassure each other. Love is about navigating these quirky behaviors together. Keep the communication flowing and sprinkle a little humor over it; love is also about laughter and understanding, after all!

Infatuation period can be brutal... I wouldn't stress about it. It will slowly subside. This isn't really your obligation, but if you want, you can do things to comfort him while you're away. Like sending texts, giving him reassurance about being loyal (if you are) or talking about the next time you'll see eachother. Just know that if you do that, it could become an expectation, so that's why I mention that there's no obligation. Definitely don't do it constantly, or you will have to keep doing it to keep things stable.

Dude, I stalked your profile. Please break up with this guy. You're going to have a fucking miserable relationship. Find a guy that's not really that into you. To match your vibe. You're both going to hate this relationship and be perpetually unhappy.

Seems to be just the opposite of most cases where the guy eats less when with his girlfriend or a date, at least that was my experiences with dating.
