Well Blondie, there is quite a gap in your ages which shouldn't make a difference if you are happy together.You need to decide if you really want to be with him and if you do, reassure him that he is your only interest, he does sound insecure but is not insurmountable. Bear in mind though that due to his age, he is likely to be less settled in what he wants than you and it sounds like he wears his heart on his sleeve.

He does sound very insecure and if you want to stay with this guy, it would mean you having to reassure him constantly. If you do love him, perhaps you will want to do this. He needs to realise that you are only interested in him and no one else and it won't be easy convincing him of that as you live quite far apart.It can be done if you want to work at building his confidence by letting him know what you are up to and telling him frequently how you feel for him and that you miss him when you are apart.Perhaps something has happened to him in his past to make him this way. It could be an idea for him to have counselling to unravel his worries.It is up to you whether you wish to stand by him. Perhaps you could also go for counselling if you feel that relationships also haven't worked for you.I do hope this helps.
