<human>: My boyfriend of a year and I are currently in a LDR of a few months. Before he moved we had a really intense relationship and we said we loved each other early on. The month before he moved we spent every waking moment together but we didn't really do much- we kind of just watched a lot of movies. 

So he's been gone and it's been alright-ish. The other day he called me and said he didn't feel that romantic love anymore and he was worried about being so serious so quickly. He was also worried that if he committed to me that our lives would be that last month we were together-a lot of nothing.  He was open to trying something to get the feelings back so I suggested we stay together but not be so serious (he thought I wanted to get married ASAP which I really don't) and when we DO spend time together we actually do things instead of laying around. I told him I understand work is his priority right now as it's mine too but I think we just lost our connection because we spent no time outside of each other for weeks and we did absolutely nothing with that time.  He said we could try it out and see how it goes.  

Is this a stupid idea? Am I being too optimistic about this?

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: Boyfriend and I are making our relationship not so serious because he feels like he's lost the romantic love between us. Does this ever work?
