Feeling Neglected

This is about being in a relationship where you almost start to lose your own identity, and the sacrifices you have taken and willing to take for your loved one!

I feel the exact same way in my relationship, and I know it hurts deep down, but I know to never show how I actually feel. At one point I talked to my boyfriend about it and he ignored me for...

Once

There once was a time
I would never feel last;
I'm not sure what happened,
But that feeling has become the past.

There once was a time,
Seeing me, brought a smile to your face,
Still I'm not sure what happened,
But that smile has slowly erased!

There once was a time
We would communicate so great,
And I still cannot figure out,
And can only hope it isn't too late.

Maybe it's me and the way that I act?
Maybe it's you from the way that I react?
Maybe it's the drugs, starting to take effect?
Maybe it's just me, feeling the neglect?

I care more about solving the problem,
And less about whose fault
Because this is literally driving me crazy,
And I am ready for the end result.

With all of that said,
To break up, I hope never;
I'm truly in love with you
And still want us to be forever!

I feel the exact same way in my relationship, and I know it hurts deep down, but I know to never show how I actually feel. At one point I talked to my boyfriend about it and he ignored me for a day after I had told him. I definitely don't wanna get between their relationship at all, but I wish they weren't as close. I know this seems really mean, but I heard she is moving away, and I kinda actually got excited, but I know my boyfriend won't be the same without her. He will show more love towards me when she's gone.

My boyfriend and I have only been seeing each other for about 3 weeks now. He has a female best friend. They have been friends for 12 years. When she is around, I am totally left out. They hold so much conversation together and I go totally unnoticed. When she is not around my boyfriend shows love towards me. He sits close to me, giving out kisses and cuddles and constantly touching me. When she is there, I get none of this. She visits him 1- 2 times a week and they are constantly on the phone together. I don't want to ever come between their friendship but it hurts my feelings. I don't know what to do.
