The change you are noticing in behavior is a sign of insecurity. Dynamics can shift after marriage, and expectations and fears become clearer, and long distance can make those feelings stronger. However, there’s an important distinction between concern and control.
Holding your brother’s hand or going out with colleagues is a normal behavior. If he becomes irritated by this, the issue isn’t the situation; it’s his perception of it. You need to talk to him calmly and clearly. If he is willing to understand, you will find balance. If not, then this is not just a small issue, and it’s a deeper trust problem that could grow over time.

He appears loyal, but external factors like his ex and kids are creating stress and tension in your relationship. The situation is still unstable and if he is confused and considering his ex feelings, your emotional safety is at risk. Living together complicates a break, but creating trust, clarity and feelings should not be compromised.
Love matters but survival and emotional clarity are more important especially when the stakes are high. Don’t rush decisions right now.

You both have a rare question, and you both genuinely know each other with all the baggage and past. Right now, his divorce is not final, and you are holding back from physical and romantic involvement. That’s the good choice. because it protects your self-respect and dignity.
Wait until the divorce is final before taking any step or decision. Observe all things with patience, and at that point, intentions and commitment will be fully clear. Respect your feelings and don’t rush decisions because this ensures long-term clarity and trust.

The reason is that there is a gap between sincerity and consistency. He is busy with his business and notices his attention is casual and minimal efforts, and most attempts are inactive. He calls when you disappear or says things he thinks you want to hear. You already communicated your feelings, and if he still does not truly understand and his efforts are only reactive, then this pattern won’t change.
From my perspective, you should prioritize your feelings, emotions, and self-respect. A good partner is not just someone’s presence; it’s about consistency, effort, and sincerity.
Ask yourself, can this relationship be truly satisfying long-term, or is it just a temporary attention?

First of all, understand your feelings because your heart and head both conflict. You are gentle and physical, and she is harsher and less physical. This thing must be noticeable because the honeymoon phase is over. Counseling can be helpful, but only if both of you are honest about your emotions.
Try a thought experiment in which you imagine your future without this conflict, can spark respect and survive. If yes, keep fighting, and if not then a dignified exit can be better choice. Love is not just feelings, it’s about surviving and thriving. But sometimes letting go is also sign of maturity.

Your bond with her seems genuine, but social dynamics are about to change. Sometimes, people force their choices to protect friendships and end up paying a painful price. You have already tried with patience, but it’s time to avoid these things which lose your respect for forever. You need to make one thing clear that you can maintain your intensions and honesty but you can’t control someone else’s fear and selfishness.
Focus on your side like respect about your emotions, deal with a patience and make your boundaries. She will reach out if she becomes ready and can balance her priorities.

Situation is so tricky. He showed the efforts before like hugs, late night calls and morning call also. But suddenly went silence. This happens sometimes because people show interest first and then step back and give space. You have already tried all these things that can make everything normal. Sending messages may effect your dignity.
The most important thing in this situation is that you just need to observe and work with patience. If he really interested in you, then he will follow up automatically. You know that interest can’t be forced and last thing is that clarity comes from people who understand space and attention. Control your emotions and expectations and respect him also.

Listen, this is an emotional game and not related to clarity right now. Her unblocking does not means that she want to communicate with you. Sometimes, people face the curiosity in this situation and check the boundaries. But in some situation, people want to move from this moment, then it happens. You already explained everything and apologized to her and her words are clear that I can never forgive you and I feel amazing without you.
So, sending more messages now can lose a respect level and create more confusions and could cross her boundaries. The best thing is to give her space. If she want to connect with you, then she will reach out. Forgiveness can not be forced, patience is the only way forward.

Actually, you are holding on not because of who he is right! But it sounds like because of who you believe he could become. Eight years is not a time to judge your relationship based on time, it’s just a pattern. You may noticed that he is avoiding the conversation together. When someone avoids you to talk about future, it’s means you are losing your relationship slowly.
You are moving and you are about to become a doctor. But, his life seems paused. I know love matters but in a long term, everything is matter like direction , support, respect and stability. You don’t want to lose him but how can you stay with him as he is today. Because building a future based on potential often leads to displeasure later.
