I don't know if I'm immature or childish, why he still with me ?

[Yumi29]

My boyfriend thinks I'm immature or Childish. I'm 23 and he is 29 which is I think it's a normal age gap. Actually I don't know how to express love, So I express it through love songs, sweet messages, But he thinks it's too childish for me. And tell me to not send me this type of things. But whenever I met him he shows his loves towards physical touches.. I wonder if it's correct or wrong. Or am I thinking to much, Or am I childhish in showing love?

If I'm childhish, So why he is with me?

Have any of you ever experienced this. Please tell me your thoughts?

You seek words of affirmation and he is a touch guy. Tell him, "Look, I do not think you understand, what someone gives they are requesting to receive... what we give is how we know to love... you need to learn to reciprocate."

"For example, I know you express love through touch and I return it... I don't tell you that you are childish. You need to figure this out and be more careful in what you say to me."

Proper notice has been given. No threats to leave etc. "Do this mean from him... "No, it does not but you need to figure this out. Sleep on it and we can pick-up here later."

Let's see who the Child is after this reality check...

There’s nothing wrong with how you express love. It’s just your style and everyone has a unique style and way that they express love.

But, people need to receive love in certain ways for them to feel and sense your love on an emotional level.

Perhaps you can go though that book together or have a discussion about what exactly makes him feel loved and what exactly makes you feel loved.

Then, together, you can find a way to incorporate that or find viable alternatives that would work for both of you, so that you can both feel the love you have for each other.

Express your love by hugging him, and kissing him and tell him you actually love him not through songs

Just be yourself. Whoever likes that will stick around.

Some men wouldn't know romance if it bit them in the ass. Sadly, you have one of those guys.
