There are a few possible reasons why your data might stop working at your boyfriend's house, even though you can still make calls.
One possibility is that his address is in a spot with a poor cell signal. This could be due to a number of factors, such as the terrain, the distance to the nearest cell tower, and the presence of tall buildings or other obstructions.
Another possibility is that there is a problem with your phone's settings. For example, your data roaming may be turned off, or your phone may be set to prefer a different network than the one that has the best signal at your boyfriend's house.
Finally, it is also possible that there is a problem with your carrier's network. For example, there may be a network outage in the area, or your carrier may be having trouble with data service on that particular network.
Here are some things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:

Thank you for getting back. Where is the choose the best network at? my rome was on. It has been fine for weeks, now since sunday morning it changed. no data, no web browsing, and incoming messages could take hours to get to me or once I get home, they will all start coming. but I live 15 miles away. so weird.
