There's an article (loveromancerelationship dot com ) that explains why men withdraw early into relationships. What are your thoughts of this:
If you can relate – if you’ve ever felt close to a man that you thought you knew, but it turned out you didn’t know him so well after all, here’s what might have gone wrong…
In the first few months of a new romance, your brain and that of your love interest release a euphoric chemical cocktail that makes you both feel invincible. The term “madly in love” isn’t far off – the brains of people newly in love look just like the brains of people with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
Which is partially why you’re so obsessed with each other.
One of the chemicals of your Brain Love Cocktail is called Dopamine, and its effects are much like an opiate – you know, like HEROIN. You feel so alive, and so exuberant, and so HIGH, that you truly don’t need to eat or sleep. It’s absolute bliss. It’s like having chocolate, and margaritas, and shortbread cookies, all at once. Not only that, but your man becomes hormonally just like you.
Suddenly, all he wants to do is talk about his feelings, and connect emotionally, and snuggle with you all the time.
This combination of factors (not to mention the fact that you’re both on your “best behavior” for a while, always dressing just right, and being extra polite to each other) makes you feel so good together. It’s like living in heaven right here on earth. You’re just sure you’ll feel this way for forever.
But then a little something happens at about the four to six month point. The dopamine stops being released in both of your brains and suddenly the man becomes hormonally like, well… a man!
