Yoiu must ask him how he feels about himself and you. To ask such a question would be for the right time and moment, timing is one of the best assessets. Of course some things are kept a secret, some things should never be said or found out. If you must pry, pry with cuation, and share a lil of youreself too. I hope this helps, good luck [ Thief's advice column | Ask Thief A Question ]

As you know, that's a really long time and it is probab;ly something important that you two should talk about to make your relationship work. good luck [ PeaceLoveHappiness's advice column | Ask PeaceLoveHappiness A Question ]

TheOldOne answered Thursday February 16 2006, 12:33 pm: Some men open up more easily than others. And some just won't open up at all. If you've been with him for nine years, and you've tried to get him to open up and failed for all that time...then it just may not be possible for him.
But if you haven't tried simply *talking* to him about it, that would certainly be worth trying. And if it bothers you so much that you'd consider leaving him, perhaps you should both go to see a couples counsellor. They can really help a couple learn how to communicate and express their feelings to each other.
