My boyfriend and I have been dating for a little over a year. It's summer right now and we barely see each other because I am working. But we always find time to FaceTime each other whenever we can. The problem is that every time we're FaceTiming, he is always playing on his Xbox. At first I didn't think it would affect me at the time, but now him playing video games has become a habit. It has gone to the point where we're not even talking. I'm just watching play Xbox and it really annoys me. Every time I try to start a conversation, he either won't hear me or he'll give me a short answer and continue playing Xbox. I always feel like a ghost whenever we're Facetiming. I've told him before that I found it annoying that he's always on his Xbox. For a couple days, we were actually having a conversation, but now it's just gotten worse. I don't know what do to. Should I tell him what I'm feeling? Please help me.

Do you do things together outside of facetime? Maybe ask for some dedicated one on one time, needing undivided attention is important. A quasi tech free evening?

You already told him what you are feeling about it, and apparently he didn't care.

So are you going to keep putting with it or not?
