I’m currently in a fix. I've been in a relationship with this guy who fell neck deep in love with me at the start.

Despite our distance, I always made out time to visit him. At the onset he acted like he couldn't do without me, but at the moment he has become so, so cold towards me. He no longer does those things that made me love him and each time I try to talk about it, he would say I should leave things the way they are.

He never calls me except I do and even when I do, he doesn't sound like the real him. I don't intend continuing with the relationship anymore but I have become too attached to him that I don't know how to go about it. Please help me._________
