writes: Help.I have been with my boyfriend for 6 months but we were friends for over a year before we started dating. We know EVERYTHING about each other and I love him more than anything. He means absolutely the world to me. We don't fight or argue ever. BUT- he slacks on the emotional part of our relationship. Keep in mind he asked me out in the first place. He has never opened up to me about the way he feels about me, and I'm not going to lie- I feel as if he's distant torwards me. It really bothers me. When I bring it up he says he doesn't see it . He says I love you, but never shows his inside feelings. I think about it every day and it really bothers me. PLEASE HELP.

Hey my boyfriend is the same. We’ve been going out for 3.5 years and he is the most perfect guy in world but his inability to open up is going to end us. It hasn’t changed, he hasn’t gotten gradually better like I’d hoped, I’ve spilled my guts so much since we’ve been together and he never has. It sound like the emotional side means a lot to you so I would settle because it is so frustrating when you just want to know how he is thinking. “I love you” gets really old really quickly. All I can say is that guys will NEVER change (neither will we) and it will just damage your self confidence being constantly denied this important aspect of your relationship. You need personal affirmation from you’re other half or else its not healthy. You’re young and this relationship could be the perfect fun and love you need right now but maybe just don’t expect him to be the love of your life and relax a bit yourself, that’s what im doing anyway. Good luck x
