jojo2 is verified as being by the original poster of the questionhi Angel of love,thanks for your reply -no I havn't been to his place,as is lodging with friends,although when I went out with him a little 11 years ago I used to go to his house-he never talked about himsef much then,but it didn't seem to bother me much then,and i was always busy so in the end he stoped phoning.
I think you are pobibly right about him being embarrassed
about being sensitive,i feel he has posibly not had a good loving childhood and doesnt feel very succesfull.

Some men may find it difficult talking about their life, maybe because they are embarressed of being perceived as sensitive about their feelings.
he may also see this relationship as a "escapism" to his daily routine. Have you been to visit him at his house.
Without giving him spanish inquisition, drop a question or two about this family and friends or simply ask him why he does not talk about it.
He may not realise what is important to you unless you let him know.
Good luck xxx
