I've been in a relationship for about a year. At first it was going so strong and I loved the attention I got. Then, over the past month I say it has changed. At about month 5, he moved across the street, would come over in the am before work, we'd talk after work, eat together and he would go home (across the street) on weekends we would spend the night. He was totally emotionally there for me. We both made a decision we would not move together and would give it time b/c we both have been in several "unhealthy relationships."
This past weekend. He just totally changed... Didn't want to talk to me on the phone.. said he needed some time to think which I understand and I totally respect but it was his approach. Now I'm questioning things. He has since made amends, took me to dinner but I still sense the distance (maybe it's me now). Has anyone experienced this before?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Asking the question here may also be an indication that it won't work. You said he was totally emotionally there for you. But you aren't talking to him about it?
Neither one of those things may apply however. Maybe something came up in his life that he needs to deal with. He may not want to put any of his baggage on you. So, are you there for him?
Then again, it sounds like you may feel that he has somehow breached your trust and you aren't going to let him in again.
These things happen in most relationships. What's important is how the two of you resolve them and move forward into a deeper relationship.
