this will probably be long and im sry but bear with me. so i [16/f] have the sweetest boyfriend ever [17/m]. we have been together 7 months on valentines day. i love him so much, hes my first love and vice versa, but im so afraid im gonna get bored of him. why you ask? he never wants to do anything! all summer, my cousin, her bf, and us hung out at six flags pretty much at least once a week sometimes twice, and it was soo much fun. other than that weve been to the movies ONE time. and the rest of the time we sit at his house. ive suggested going to the movies, but he never wants to, and ive suggested going to dinner, and even my mom has offered to pay for our dinner, but he doesnt want to do that either bc 1- he "feels bad" if my mom or i pays [especially during the time he was unemployed], and 2- he considers the things my mom and i eat [longhorn, chili's, cracker barrel, etc] "fancy", and all he ever wants is burger king and crap. my mom mentions all the time how i have a boring boyfriend, and even he says that he doesnt want me to get bored of him, and the other night he said he knows id like to go out and do stuff and im probably used to that from previous boyfriends, and he said he'd start doing stuff with me, and said we could go to the movies saturday [yesterday]. so during the week i mentioned some things we could see and all he'd ever say is "i dont care" or "i dunno". yesterday rolls around and i said "do you still wanna go to the movies" and he was like "i dunno". i mentioned it probably 3 times and he kept giving the impression that no he didnt want to so i was just like forget it and let it go. it drives me insane because we never do anything. we sit at his house eating or watching tv or making out. i mean sure "chill" time is great but we go to different schools and i only see him maybe 1-3 times a week and thats all we ever do. and im afraid i will become bored enough to the point that i break up with him, and i dont wanna do that because i really do love him. but in 7 months, weve been on 1 date. he didnt even come to my birthday dinner [at longhorn]. the main reason was because when we all first got there he was on his way back from the store or something with his brother. but even when some of my family offered to LEAVE the restaurant and pick him up, he kept beating around the bush about it and in the end didnt come. and my whole family was like wtf? according to him hes gotten "accustimed" [whoah i spelled that wrong] to not eating out at "fancy" places and now doesnt prefer it. about the movies, who knows. and theres nothing else to do in this town. ughh, help? neither of us drives btw.. i have a license but no car, and he has neither.

I dont really understand why he never wants to go anywhere, but in my opinion, if he doesnt want to be with you, he's not much of a boyfriend...or, it could be he's just nervous about dating because he doesn't know what to do and is afraid he will do it wrong.
