Hello everybody. I'm a first time poster (buuuut....have been a lurker for quite some time now 
)
Was wondering if you guys can provide me advice to figure out my "relationship".
(I apologise in advance for the grammar mistakes or incoherence. I'm still working on my English)
Okay so, I met this guy online 5-6 months ago. I was never expecting to develop feelings for him. I was very hesitant about having feelings for him but he managed to make me fall for him (I say fall because I feel that I've fallen in love with him). He was constantly throwing hints that he wanted to get into a relationship when we didn't know that well, I think (or I like to think) that we both were blinded by love or feelings that it made us go fast on this whole thing. After 3.5 months of knowing eachother we decided to be exclusive. He said "now you're my girlfriend"- I was happy.
Here is where my problem lies. He used to be so affectionate at first but then after getting in a relationship he stopped being affectionte, we used to talk daily, he used to talk to me when he was out partying with his friends or out doing whatever, now days he doesn't do that and we don't talk as much as we used to. We still talk but not daily.
He stopped saying he missed me and that I meant something to him and that he wanted to be with me so bad... this is the main reason why our relationship has been unstable for the last 1.5 months. I always tell him how bad I wish he was affectionate like he used to be and he says that he's being affectionate and he gets upset and he looks hurt (he once cried while I was talking to him about this. He was drunk though). He says "how ridiculous is this, gf doesn't trust I like her". He says that he wants me to trust him (by the way, i have major trust issues). I've tried to break up with him but he doesn't seem to give up. I've brought up the affection subject for the past 1.5 months and even though he gets upset and says that he can't handle me "accusing" him of not being affectionate, he still seems to want me.
At some point, I remember telling him I love you and he responded "don't love me, you haven't even met me yet". I don't think he takes our relationship seriously. Specially because of the fact that "we haven't even met yet". Sometimes I think that we're in two different pages, I feel that I am more connected to him emotionally and he seems to be more into the physical aspect (even though he once mentioned that he was emotionally attached to me but he doesn't show it anymore). I really love him but he doesn't feel the same way. He says that I'm very important to him and that I mean so much to him but... I don't know, I wish he felt the same as I do. i wish he loved me too.
I'm so confused. Sometimes I want to give up cause I feel I am not smart or beautiful enough (I don't even think I'm pretty for christ sakes) for him and that he might be playing with my mind.
Thanks for reading <333

firstly, don't think you aren't smart or beautiful enough for him. Don't down play yourself, ok? It seems that you've broched the subject of affection quite a lot and he still hasn't done anything. I guess you might have to decide if you are willing to accept that or not. By the way I'm sorry but that comment of "you don't love me we haven't even met yet" was very harsh. I guess you could try being affectionate towards him more and see if he responds. Otherwise I think you'll have to decide if you're wanting to continue with things knowing he's going to be like this.
