Communication Breakdown.?

Ok, so I have been dating my bf for almost 2 months now. We have been hanging out a few times every week when we can and talk to eachother every day on the phone. Now, the only thing that is wierd is the fact that in the first few weeks of the relationship he use to talk to me more the once or twice a day.. He use to send me text messages and stuff, but now we basically only talk once maybe twice a day. I know that is good already... but I just thought it was wierd as the the lack of conversation. Now, sometimes he calls me and tells me he is going to call me back and sometimes he does other times he doesn't.

Every so often he will feel the need to tell me about girls that message him on his online dating profile. He tells me that he writes back to them telling them that he is taken. I don't know if he is doing that to make me jealous or what. I'm not sure how to tell him that it kind drives me nuts. After soo many months when is it right to ask him to delete them?

Update:

How do I tell him that it bothers me when he tells me crap like that? I mean why would a guy that you are dating tell you about other girls wanting to get with him? He is jealous of guys hitting on me all the time... I just wonder if he is trying to make me the same way? Or is he trying to make me end the relationship. I mean I don't see any signs of that. He tells me he loves me and bought me something really nice for valentines day...

Update 2:

He has a few of them and says that he has paid money for them and didn't want to close them. That was about a while ago when I asked him. Maybe he is waiting for me to ask him to delete them...

    This guy may be a little lacking in HOW to express love. It doesn't mean he doesn't FEEL it, it just means he may have already used all the expressions he knows, and he feels re-using the same words over and over will drive you to boredom. In a similar way, his "mentioning" of telling girls online he is "TAKEN" is a gesture of love, in that he is in essence telling you that you mean more to him than any other.

    He does need to graduate from this, but don't let it be a wall between you two. communicate with him and without ACCUSING him of anything, just mention sometime that his dating accounts bother you; that you want the best piece of candy OUT of that candy store! He should get the message. In the meantime, help him to notice things that make YOU feel loved. I don't mean to come out and ASK for things... just point out the things you see that you like, day to day. If you want more texts from him, send him texts. Not ones saying,"Where are you" or "whatcha doin?" but ones that say something like,

    "I just saw __________ and it reminded me of you."

    Keep it loose. Us guys are thick headed sometimes

    Well first of all hes your boyfriend and i stress YOUR!! biyfriend so why the hell is he on a dating site, he shouldnt be on that at all, and well communiaction breakdown, either he is really busy at work or something else and im sure you knoe what i am going to say,

    i think you should bring it up in one of your conversations and makei it clear that you are not happy about and question him try and hold his eyes and ask him if he is really telling them that he is taken or is he showing an interest in one of these girls, if he fobs you off, then get rid of him, i bet your lovely and you dont deserve to be tagged along so sort him out

    good luck x x x

    in response to your additional comments, i willt ell you the biggest secret on earth... Men LIE!!! not all men and i trust my boyfriend 100% but there are creeps out there that do, so interrogate him x

    Sounds he is playing head games with you to test your love for him to see if you get jealous, which is immature.. Clue to how to get him to stop.is in your power of his jealousy of you talking to other guys. Next time he brings up girls tell him that you plan to do the same thing, email other guys also. He is being insensitive to your feelings. Even if he paid for the online dating service what is his reason to still continue using it? You are right in asking him to delete them but how will you know if he really does? Sounds as if he likes to play these silly games, you either tell him to stop or play fire with fire. You decide.

    I'm not really sure how much help I can be but one little thing is that you really can't ever ask him to delete them... You can ask him why he feels the need to even have them and stuff like that, but it is his decision to have them and if you tell him to delete them, it may just make him stop talking about them with you and still keep them...

    I would ask him if he sees your relationship as serious, and if he says yes. Then tell him how you feel about him, and that you want a future with him, and that you would like for him to delete the accounts that he has for on-line dating, because you want to be the one that makes him happy.

    Look, just tell him "if you love me and we're going to be together, you need to delete your online stuff because there's no reason for it anymore and at this point it's really disrespectful to me"....

    ...If he says no, then tell him "I want and need someone who will love and respect me"

    hes comfertable and tell him straight up you want him to talk to you like before, if he's a smart *** tell him it makes you hot when he calls caring or something to get him to

    men get comfertable with women easily with these things
