Silent partner

my boyfriend has not spoken to me in over a week, he is busy at work and says he is tired and stresed. he seems to be avoiding spending time with me and when i text him or try to speak to him he acts like i am really hassling him. i tried to be playful by text messages but he replies with short, usually one word replies. any ideas of what to do? tonight he came home and went straight to bed without even saying hello to me! for me, being in a relationship should mean that you look for each other in these times, not push away. any advice??

There isn't much you can do really, I would advice reverse psychology. If he is being silent and treating you like you have done something wrong them be silent as well.Be double silent in fact. Say hi and don't push him, it might be that he has problems that have got nothing to do with you, men deal with their problems differently, they keep quite trying to figure them out, unlike us women we talk about our problems. So just give him his distance, wait for him to come to you when he is ready. Good luck.
