You need to talk to him again. You can't carry on in a relationship you are just not happy in. Choose your words carefully to try and limit his crying. However, he probably will still get upset because its never easy to hear your partner is not happy in your relationship.Tell him exactly what's on your mind (in the best way possible) don't beat around the bush, he needs to know everything if he is to improve how you'd like him to.Once he knows how you're feeling, give him time to adjust and try harder. If things don't improve then you need to move on and be with someone who meets your expectations. You can't live your life being unhappy, you only get one chance in this world.Good luck, keep us updated :)

look you care fo him deeply i think the best way to approach this would be to get him to a place where he is always happy and then say look this is you when youre happy but do you realise that even though i look happy i could be far more happier hun if you could just do somehing i like once and a whiel try show me what you think about me instrad of me trying to make you do it hun can you please take the leading role i dnt want a lose you but by the way youre acting all i can do is start to lose what i have and its starting to confuse me about what you think about me i know you cried last time i tried to talk to you im not having a go at you am just pointing out hunnie that things need to improve for us...see this is me expressing to you that im not as happy as you its not me biting or being a bitch am just showing you that i care for are relationship and if you cared too you would make more of a effort to show me this am gunna give you three weeks to improve on yourself and if it doesnt improve will you let me have three days a peace so i can reside to what i want out a my life its clear that you want me in youre but i need to know how much you want me
