We hung out more, we talked all the time, and we're good friends and we like each other a lot. However, he refuses to go public with our 'relationship'. He won't tell his friends, he won't post it anywhere and he won't tell anyone. When we're together, he treats me like a princess, but when we're in public he acts like I'm just a friend. I try to talk to him about it, but he won't talk about his emotions. What do I do?! it's driving me insane! Reply to this Question

 He's not taking the relationship seriously, if he even considers it a relationship at all. He wants to appear single to everyone else in case someone better comes along, sorry to say.
I don't usually support ultimatums, but it's necessary in this case. Let him know you're going to look elsewhere if he can't make up his mind and tell people you're his girlfriend. It'll show him you're not going to settle for being his Plan B.
