A female United States age 30-35, *ah mouw writes:

What do you do when your boyfriend loves you in a way he's never loved any other girl before? It's that kind of feeling you get that's kinda scary... and you just want to run away from it cos you don't know how to deal with it - like you just don't know what to do with the feeling... sort of just like it's really overwhelming.

My boyfriend (or ex...) is constantly saying how he loves me. but I think he's so afraid to commit. He randomly broke up with me about 2 weeks ago. But he still wants to act like we're together... he wants to tell me how he loves me all the time. It's so hard to get him to talk about his feelings. He'll tell me he loves me and he'll tell me how he feels about me. But if I ask him anything else about his feelings for me he just shuts down... Like I said... I think and feel - from what I've observed is that he's just really scared... these feelings seem new/different to him and I don't think he knows what to do with them. How do I deal with that? How do I help HIM deal with it. i want him to be confident of us being together... not scared.

Entirely Unique agony auntYou need to talk to him and explain how this is affecting you and the way you're feeling.

I do understand that he knows he loves you but he's scared as this is all new to him but you have to reassure him as much and as best as you can so he doesn't feel scared of your relationship and his feelings but feels he can deal with it and take it on with you right there beside him.
