Like said before, what you talk about is "action says more than words". He can tell you he loves you, but if his actions doesnt show it, then you are not feeling loved. And that is just how it works. To hear "I love you" is important, but it also needs to be complimented by action.
Many women come on dearcupid complaining about the opposite. Their man gives lots of affection, and makes them feel loved, and their actions tells the woman that he loves her. But they do not say the actual words... that leads to heart ache as well. What you need is a combination of both.

What you are saying all in a nut shell ( Actions speaks louder then words) thats loving someone instead of just saying it. and yes the 2 are different. ones easy to say and the other is harder to do for some people. so maybe why don't you take the first step if you love him and needs a push, open him up. and he will come around by watching you!and remember this one too! giving up on someone is easier then trying.Best Wishes!

Ok this is too broad, too vague of a question. What seems to be the problem specifically here. Put it in terms of what you need to feel loved and what he's not doing to that effect and you'll get better help.

You didn't give much information on why you feel as though you bf is unable to connect with you on an emotional level so it's really hard for the ppl that may post to your question to answer it.
