He tried to cut things short earlier too, I didn't say anything worthy of blushing, I feel like it was an excuse https://ibb.co/tPt9n4n

  • You do know that a lot of what is happing now will carry into a relationship when you two are together. Right? I mean he may get more affectionate when you are together but it won't be much. People who are who the are and not pretending to be someone else don't change that much. If he is not talkative or passionate now then he won't be much more later on either. If he was trying to pretend to be something he is not you would have picked up on that by now. So you see what you are getting in too before hand.
    At his age it is easier for him to mold you into what he wants instead of you changing him into what you want. You will either comply or fight about it. In a relationship there is give and take from both sides. How much is he willing to give and how much is he willing to take?

  • I'm not sure what him being on the left has to do with it. But he definitely seems to have felt uncomfortable. And his clipped way of responding was probably him trying to show you that. Or he's just poor at communicating.
    Rocking the boat seems like a good idea, but don't do it in a critical way. That will make him retreat more. I suggest doing it in a way that is clear and yet respectful and open

    • he;s on the left in the text photo lmao

    • Rotfl!

    • lmao I was like "nooo I wasn't clear enough!"

  • I don't think you should rock the boat, because that would make him want to stop talking to you. However, you can ask him why was he acting like that.

  • Always be open and clear with communication.

    if you like it, don’t like it etc, then say so early on. .

    tell him that single word responses makes you feel meh, or insecure, or disconnected.

  • You should definitely try to rile him up! You can't just leave things as is, unless you really want to. He doesn't seem too into it so it's up to you to try or just bail.

  • I'm not sure what to say about that... I'd see what happens in person and gauge it from there

  • One word replies mean he doesn't want to continue the conversation.

  • Be honest with him

    • Affection is important to a girl. Drives me crazy when guys do the whole strong silent thing.

  • I think you should rock the boat

    Hues Corporation - Rock the Boat

  • ... don't rock the boat baby🎵🎵🎵🎵

  • He also said he loves you.

  • You deserve way better ngl

  • thats the strangest thing

    • tell me about it

  • he can't read your mind. if you feel it, express it.

    • he knows I don't like it, at this point it would just be repeating in hopes of change

  • It was hard to choose one of those options bc it's both. Or at least for me. Depending how, when, and where he was raised that can be more accentuated or less so. But you gotta let him know how you feel, we're dense, we don't come to these conclusions on our own.

  • He seems hesitant when it comes to talking about anything physical with you

  • Do what you feel you need to do.. if you aren't happy with the interaction between the 2 of you, and you've already talked about it and you've expressed that you want more from him and you are still not getting it... all I can say is..."ICEBERG STRAIT AHEAD".

    You picking up what I'm putting down?

  • I think he was bored, but at least he said he loved you.

  • Sounds like a child

  • Tell how it makes you feel

  • Rock the boat. It's a necessary rocking. And never avoid necessary rocking.

    • Hmm it seems he's pretty immature...

    • Only sexually. He isn't comfortable with it.

    • Hmm interesting. Do you know if he's uncomfortable because of a past experience? Maybe ask him about it, maybe he needs to say something but can't seem to spit it out. Ask him if there's something he wants to talk about, try to make him feel comfortable to open up about whatever it is.

  • Maybe he was busy, or already sleeping, or just not in the mood.

    • he does this every time we talk

    • That's not very nice indeed. Maybe he's just not used to it, or it's just how he is. I'm a bit like that, sometimes. Not used to display of affection so I don't exactly know how to manage it. Did you tell him it was bothering you?

    • I've told him before. That's why it would be rocking the boat if I said it again

  • Oh hon, tip the boat over.
