I've been with my boyfriend for nearly 3 years now, he used to be obsessed with me for the first year, now he's quietened down like he's used to me, which I know can happen, we have been through an awful lot (deceit, emotional abuse, arguing, breaking up) but that was a year ago and things have changed so due to this I think this is why The "honeymoon period" has completely gone and I'm wondering how to get that back? How can I make him feel like he felt the first time? I feel really sad about this :(

The honeymoon phase doesn't last for anyone because it's not supposed to, op. What should develop is a profound sense of trust and security. A deep love and respect that will see you through a lifetime. Stop comparing your relationship to some stupid rom com that makes a mockery out of real relationships. That being said, abuse has no place in a loving partnership. If that is still a factor, you should end it.

I’d bet good money that this relationship won’t last.

Being ‘obsessed’ with you for the first year is actually a pretty common red flag for later abuse (Google Love Bombing) the fact that ‘deceit, emotional abuse, arguing, breaking up’ followed is further proof that you’re in a toxic relationship and need to end it.
