We've hit a bit of a bumpy patch.

My boyfriend and I have been together for about 3 months. We're a good couple and we don't really argue, we talk about things and everything. We have both brought up different issues and we're trying to work on them properly.
Last week my boyfriend started saying he wasn't happy with our relationship so I asked what was troubling him.
He said that he thought there was no spark, so we said that we'd speak about it when we saw each other the following day.
He said 'Ignore me I was chatting s**t, I went on a long walk with James (our mutual friend) and worked a lot of stuff out in my head but there are some things that are bothering me'.
He said he wanted me to start acting more like the woman in the relationship. So I asked for him to outline what he meant and I agreed that I would try and do those things.
He said that he wanted me to be a little bit more clingy towards him, just contact him more during the day and stuff, this is nothing big so it's an easy thing for me to do.
I said to him that I think we need to make more time for each other. We have both been trying but there have been several things that have stopped us from doing this.
My boyfriend's friend was recently thrown out of his house so this has meant that when we do spend time together his friend is there- not the most perfect of situations but I understand why.
My health has been pretty bad lately, so there are days when I can bearly function. With his friend being at his, obviously whilst his friend is staying with him it's better for me to go to his house.

I sometimes feel like my boyfriend isn't putting in the effort, I've voiced my opinion on several occassions.
I really like him and don't want to end the relationship but I am getting really down by this, where his with his friend constantly it's hard to speak to him about this.
I really want to get this sorted but it's difficult to do so right now and no one is sure how long his friend is going to be staying for.

Thanks for any advice people can give me.

When you get the chance text him, e-mail him, call him and tell him to come over and you need to talk to him. Tell him it's not fair for him to ask of all this stuff from you when you don't feel he's putting in the effort, try and talk to him and express how you feel and if he doesn't even put in the effort or listen to you then end the relationship. It'll only hurt for awhile but in the end you'll find you made the right decision, and besides there's billions of other better guys out there, there is always someone out there who is better than the last one, so don't feel like he's the only good one out there.

You're only 3 months into this relationship and you're having these problems, that's a bit of a red flag that you need to have a serious heart to heart and figure things out or you're both going to find like you're being strung along by the other.

Thanks girls, I am going to see him today, as long as we're alone I'll speak to him about it all properly.
I hate doing these kind of things face to face but I don't like it when people speak to me about important things over text or the phone, so I'm going to give him that at least.
