I can only get my boyfriend's attention when I threaten to end our relationship & start seeing other people. What do I do?

Don't just threaten do it!! Sounds to me like you guys need some time apart. Sometime we get to caught up in just being in a relationship we forget how important the other person really is to us. So by breaking up with him for a while maybe he'll realize hey I messed up I had a good thing going and now I don't! Have you heard the saying of you love something let it go and I it's ment to be it will come back. Try it!! It's better to find out now than years down the road.

Break up with him. You're obviously not doing well with him

You should probably quit threatening him and just move on. You obviously cant keep his attention. He loves his iphone.
He knows you are just making threats.
Find someone that would really love the attention you want to share and savor it.

Do just what you threatened to do and see how long he lasts without you. That will teach him a lesson.

Leave him alone, ignore him, treat him like he treats you. It sounds like he thinks he has you all to himself maybe even using you. I am sorry to tell you that, but I wish someone had told me. GOOD LUCK TREAT HIM LIKE DIRT can't hurt.

Lose him - but learn from this and don't let it happen again. If you have to resort to threats to keep him, you don't have a real relationship - you have a hostage situation. There are plenty of fish in the sea that will cherish you - let them know you're on the market.
