How do I connect with a guy if he's not really emotional with me? My boyfriend loves me he gives me attention but rarely does?

[LUPITA00]

He rarley does call me pretty but if we are in a fight or small argument he never really says how he feels I'm not going to break up with him I am more of a keeping breaking up a last resort how do I let him know that its okay too be emotional with me

[Guy13]

Provoking him to get an emotional reaction from him will only put more distance between the two of you. “Why is she trying to start a fight?” Shut down even more…

Your style of love expression is not conducive. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[LUPITA00]

I don't want to fight... maybe I worded that wrong. I meant he just does not really says anything sweet to me. And if I ask him what's wrong he just says it's nothing. I want to help him feel better but he doesn't tell me what happened he just acts like everything is fine

[Guy13]

Gotcha ‼️ Pressing him when there is nothing wrong makes him wonder if he’s doing something wrong OR I don’t think I’m good for her.. I’m just being me.
Boys or guys without Dad often have to be taught. So, as long as he’s employed…

Here’s what you can do for me this week. Go to the Trader Joe’s and get me few flowers (10.00) or even a small plant for my space.
Flowers are beautiful…. the plant makes me think of you when you’re not here. ***Holding his hand face-face will help***.
Then just back step and let his hand go and smiling but NOT laughing. You know how to be happy serious…
Upon Delivery: Don’t thank him by name… Thank you, Man. or Gentleman. He might pick-up with a “Wohhh-man”, please now… sometime 🤷🏻‍♂️

Some people, like me, don't really focus on their emotions.

For example I rather tend to focus on how to fix problems, rather than how I feel about them.

[LUPITA00]

Yeah but in order to help fix the problem shouldn't he tell how he feels? At least about me? Maybe he doesn't want me to see that side of him?

[es20490446e]

I don't know about him, I can just tell you about me.

I think that focusing on how I currently feel about a negative event distracts me from improving it.

in my case for 2 reasons: 1. i'm afraid she'll hate me and leave me 2. i'm afraid she'll use it as a PR stunt for her career with the guy she's seeing and use it against me
