i've been with my boyfriend for over 2 years and we still love each other a lot. i show him all the time how i feel about him, like by giving him a back rub or making him dinner. he tells me that he loves me and is still in love with me, but he never shows me anything that can prove what he says. he has a hard time saying i love you first. i just don't know what to do
iWALKintoWALLS answered Friday April 22 2005, 6:58 pm: it sounds like he may be afraid of getting into a real serious relationship guys are wierd, they really dont want to grow up and going out with a girl for over a year they start thinking that you may want to marry them and a bunch of crazy things. what i think you should do is talk to him about how your feeling, because you dont want to be giving him all your love and affection and your not getting anything in return...there's a guy out there for you that will give it bak to you, you just have to find him first...or wait for him to find you...good luck!

Foxsea17 answered Friday April 22 2005, 5:58 pm: People show their emotions in all different ways. For example, most males that are friends don't tell eachother they love eachother. They do things together like playing basketball, joking around together: it's their way of becoming closer and showing that they are friends. This has been a large problem in the communication between men and women. Women feel as if they need to express their feelings through doing this for others, while men are less outgoing about their feelings. If you are really concerned about this lack of expression, maybe you should sit down and tell him how you feel. Don't attack him, though! Just tell him that sometimes, you feel that you do so many things for him because you love him so very much and you don't feel that in return. Ask how he feels about you and why he feels uncomfortable saying "I love you" first. The best way to solve relationship problems are through honest, calm communication! Hope that I helped and that everything works out for you! [ Foxsea17's advice column | Ask Foxsea17 A Question ]
