Sometimes we wonder why guys do this. They like you and very enthusiastic in the beginning. They want to know a lot about you, asking so many questions, compliments and being all over sweet and nice. You fell for him, sometimes when you didn't previously. You think you just found yourself a guy who's genuinely like you.
Then when you start liking him back, giving him attention, he suddenly pulls away. No more roses and sweet good morning texts, until one day, you stop hearing from him completely.
It's like the time you have been together doesn't matter to him. You called and texted but he won't pick up or reply. It causes bad feelings to be ignored for days, weeks, even months. If you're currently in this situation, here's what you can do:
It's not worth your time and energy to keep contacting him. You have a life to attend to, and he's not your priority. Because certainly, you aren't his priority too (proved by the way he ignores you). Besides, not contacting will make him curious and perhaps, he'll reach you out because he hasn't heard from you. When he does reach out, end things immediately. Refuse if he asks you out again. You deserve a better guy than him.
We don't always need closure, especially from a guy who treats you like you are some kind of disposable thing. Accept that there are things in life you will never understand. The acceptance itself is the answer. A closure you need.
Life's too short to be spent worrying over one flakey guy. There are still a lot of good men out there waiting to be discovered. So pull back your confidence and go out there. Meet new people and make friends. Who knows that one of it can lead to something more serious?
Sometimes, it hurts you so much that he ignores you. Especially after you trusted him enough to open yourself. Especially after you have been dating him for a long time. It left a traumatic feeling you hard to shake even after a certain period of time. You no longer trust people. He left you a deep wound that's not easy to heal.
If this is the case, take some times to focus on yourself first. Do a lot of self-care activities and stop dating for a while. Talk with friends, family, or even a therapist. Let yourself heal first.
If you're wondering why he disappears and ignoring you. These are some possible reasons:

3. You're too available and become needy
It's possible that you scare him off by being too needy. You seek too much attention from him. The right guy usually is okay if you want attention from him, because he would love to take care of you. If he's not, clearly he isn't the one.
If he loves you, you can ask for attention from your boyfriend whenever and wherever.
