Coming from a guys point of view, I always opened up and spoke my feelings to girls and when you do they eventually crush your heart. Thats just my experience. Maybe he has experienced the same thing.

If he truly is emotionless, he's obviously dead. Or a dodo. Probably that one. That's an absolute dumb@ss thing to believe.

Okay, in all seriousness. It is possible, but you need to be careful. The idiotic guy that seriously thinks they're emotionless, or that others will believe that, is in actuality scared of his emotions or admitting that he has them. I sometimes get scared of mine because I know that I can have a violent temper that I usually bottle up, and I'm TERRIFIED that I'll explode around someone I care about and that they'll hate me once they see what's inside. It's incredibly difficult for me to 'fess up about my feelings because I've been really badly hurt in the past by people that I've allowed in past my mental and emotional barriers.

Okay, I suppose what you were wanting to know was really about how to get him to do this? The main thing is to be supportive whenever he shows his emotions, whatever they are. I'm not saying let him hurt you or others when he's angry, but be an emotional buffer of sorts when he shows them.
Another hint is to ask how his day was, ask what he did, who he did it with and what their reaction was. Just getting him to start talking is the best place to begin all your heart to heart talks that your heart desires. He'll eventually drop any stupid notions that he is emotionless when he finds that he's comfortable speaking about his emotions with you.
The main thing that you need to be careful (as what I mentioned earlier) about is that you don't come across as prying. If he sees you doing that, he'll IMMEDIATELY clam up again and never open up for you. Don't make it obvious that you are in fact wanting to talk about feelings.

Of course it is, guys all have their weaknesses and that's their emotions. Girls can be like that too, whenever I have something on my mind a guy is the last person I want to share it with and perhaps guys think the same? Who knows that a true question for a guy right there. But sometimes guys rather their space when it comes to their feelings, if it's important enough he will certainly talk to you about it. Never FORCE a guy to talk about his feelings though.

It is, but it's extremely hard to do so. I wish guys would be more open with their feelings, that would have made a lot of my relationships easier.

I would like to know the same thing cause I have tried for a guy that I have really deep feelings for to take his feelings for me out but he says he doesn't want to open his heart again cause he feel in love ones with someone already and he got hurt and he doesn't want that to happen again. But he has told me that he knows I wouldn't hurt him but for him its better to hide what he feels
