How can I put this.... hmmmm...
Men are generally bad at displaying their feelings. Some, like me do not feel the need to xxx's on messages as they seem insincere. A man's feels comes through when you are with him.
The fact that you still like him tells me that his attitude is different when you are together.
Don't worry to much over text messages. I am sure you will know that it is alot easier to compose a written message than a verbal one because we have time to set our messages on paper. Big secret, its one reason why it usually takes us men so long to reply!
The fact that he has never been in a serious relationship before would also cause him some distress in having a girl friend. Be gentle and let him know what a relationship is about slowly. Don't force him or make demands on what he should or should not do. A relationship should be a two way thing and understanding each other insecurities is a must. Talk to him, but don't drop all your relationship problems on him at once!
Good luck.

I know you asked for mens views but as I was reading your worries became familiar as I have been in this same position as you are now, I spoke to my boyfriend about it at the time and he didn't even realise what he was doing he was so use to texting his mates that kisses and things like that didn't come naturally, where as alot of us females do put kisses on texts to our girlfriends aswell as our boyfriend, after I spoke to him and got him to see how I was feeling I got texts with kisses almost everytime, so I would suggest talking to him he is with you for who you are so don't ever feel worried about being honest and telling him how your feeling.
