Dear John:

Why not tell her what you feel, not in a dramatic way, but in a casual, honest, straightforward way. Instead of  communicating to her “oh lame, I don’t care”, and  “some occasional sarcastic remarks”- tell her how it is for you, what you think and feel.

Again, in a casual, light way; not in a heavy, accusatory, angry way. Then see/ hear how she responds to you.  Nothing for you to lose this way, and maybe something to gain. What do you think?
