writes: My boyfriend is confusing me. When I'm with him I know that he cares and that he trusts me, but he has problems putting things into words, I get it and I respect that he is still trying to let himself be vulnerable. But it is starting to get to me. I don't know how to deal with it, idk what I want to hear but something. Not I love you because I think it is too much of a cliche but more like just something that tells me he cares. I don't know how to like handle this. I'm so confussed. At one level I just know he does and on another I want to hear it because I don't.

You may have been watching too many romantic films on tv. Your boyfriend is young and won't be able to express how he feels in words that you want to hear. Just enjoy the time you are with each other, after all, he is there isnt he. Sometimes actions speak louder than words. Maturity brings truth and words spoken in truth mean more than romantic phrases. Enjoy what you have and try not to analyze it at this stage.
