My boyfriend is 31 and I am 21. He is very successful work-wise, and has a great deal more life experience than I, whereas I'm still studying, living with my parents and work at a small mom and pop gift shop. He spoils me, says sweet things often and is generally very kind to me. But he often tells me what a little girl I am and how innocent I am. He often says that one day he can picture me this or that way, ( for example, dressing a particular way or clubbing) when I leave my home state or in a few years when I've grown some more. He has often mentioned how my innocence makes him cautious about things he says or wants to show me. I never understood what he meant. When I finally got him to elaborate, he said that he is not sure the right pace to introduce me to going to a club or even to go on a vacation to Hawaii with him without my parents! My feelings are really hurt. I have been on vacations often since I was very young without my parents, and I've been to bars. I know he thinks I'm too shy, and part of me wonders if he thinks I'll be too awkward and shy in a club. Also his brother lives in Hawaii, and even though he's told his brother about me, and shown him pics, he won't tell his parents, so I worry that there is something about my personality that would embarrass him in front of his family. As soon as I asked him what he meant and he elaborated, he started acting super sweet and anxious about how I was taking what he said. Please help me understand how he sees me, and what is he trying to communicate?!
this is hard to explain I think He loves you but part of him want you to be more mature,and the other part of him adores your innocents.
Kind of like he want to go places with you but doesn't want to apply pressure on you an at same time he kind of think he will miss you being a little naive.

It means you have a father-daughter type of relationship, and the age difference is what leads him not to tell his parents, who would not approve of it.
I think he's dropping hints that you are only a plaything for him, and not to make any long term plans involving you and him!

Sounds like he wants to be a "father figure" to you.
you haven't been exposed to the world yet.
