Question Posted Saturday December 26 2009, 8:58 pm
My boyfriend, 15 and I, 14 are very close. We've been together for a year and a half. He's NOT gay. I'm just wondering why we don't do anything. We've never been on a date. Well, football games but nothing specified, "date" material. We HAVEN'T KISSED. We do some things though. We touch each others legs? I've kissed his neck? We hug (: haha. I just want to KNOW that i'm turning him on. He says I do but... I'm just not too sure. When we're at lunch, I'll touch his leg and as my hand gets more "up there" (not his penis just upper,upper thigh) He won't let. He'll move his legs closer together and he'll move to holding my hand instead. What does this mean? Do I turn him on? I know this is a good guy, but... seriously?
I'm just seriously wondering why he hasn't DONE anything. Can any guys or girls please tell me, because I just can't figure it out.

One, he might not approve of PDO (public displays of affection). He gets uncomfortable knowing that people might be watching him show his affection for you. It isn't that he is embarrassed of you, but he doesn't feel comfortable with the idea of everyone watching him while he is giving (or receiving) affection to/from you.
Another factor could be he is "saving" himself for marriage (or he might not be ready yet). Some people have different things that turn them on . . . for some people it's simply the feeling of touching skin. He doesn't want to get too close because he might not be ready for that sort of thing. You might be turning him on too much . . . ;)
There could be more reasons, but these seem to be the most obvious. He is comfortable with some levels of affection, but has tabooed anything more than that. I wish you luck! You could try talking to him (if you haven't already) to see why he is acting strange.
