I've been in this very situation before. You are right. He probably does care a lot about you. The problem is, he doesn't really know how to express himself in that way. A lot of young men that age don't. Most of them act like they're so macho, but the reality is that most of them are just as inexperienced as women are.
It's very easy to go to bed with someone, but when you're expressing your feelings with your hands by touching the face and caressing the hair etc, things can get complicated.
Some good advice I have for you is when you're in a romantic situation and he has his hands around you, gently take his hands and place them where you want them. Then reply, "that's nice, I love when you do that. I feel so safe and cared for. He will love it because he'll know he's making you feel good.
Believe me, he'll do it all the time. If you don't tell and then show he'll never know. They can't read our minds. I hope I helped. Keep me informed about how it went.
Good luck,
