Sorry.
Fwiw, as long as you're not spamming them or anything I don't think there's anything neurotic here. There's nothing wrong with being emotionally invested in a friendship, or being stressed out about signs it might have ended or changed.
At the same time, because I know nothing about you or your friend, I feel compelled to reference one of my favorite pieces of advice from a classic rock song: "hold on loosely, but don't let go. If you cling too tightly, you might lose control." Meaning holding on too tightly to someone might be off-putting whether them distancing themself was intentional or not. Your best bet might just be to demonstrate your independence as a person and wait to see what happens.
Oh I absolutey am cutting him loose as he's done to me until he answers for it, we're going on 3 months soon so that is unacceptable to not recognizing someone and preventing them from contacting them. At some point, there is only one explanation and at the end of the day, I feel my time is more valuable than ceding freely to someone who objectively makes it impossible to touch base with em and letting me waste more time finding out what the deal is.
Even then, if he wants to be balding baby about it, he's probably out anyway. I've grown tired of (t)his bullshit
