I feel no chemistry in new relationship and miss what i had with my ex

What higher expectations did your ex have compared o the new guy?

This new guy is chilled and much more laid back. He accepts me for who I am whereas my ex didn't. My ex wanted me to talk/text all the time, he didn't even care if I had exams and made me almost have a nervous breakdown as a result. He wanted me to be his trophy girl, also be able to cook and clean the house ect..without considering helping me at all. He basically wanted me as a maid. He wanted me to live in his home with the family. He nags too much about really petty things and was overly paranoid and sensitive. However he had another side to him, he knows how to sweep a girl off her feet.

How old are you guys?

Me and my ex broke up and were together for 6 months. We were really close, he knew how to banter, make me feel loved and special but he had high expectations in the relationship and he is quite traditional. Also his family had a lot of problems and he is the youngest so he wanted everything to be perfect and when he found out I had adhd, he got scared about committing ect so in the end it turned out to be a mutual breakup.

This new guy I'm getting to know is a really nice guy, very quite, shy ect. He has only been in one relationship before but his ex cheated on him so he left her and was really badly hurt. I feel like when we have a conversation, it gets nowhere and he ends it with close ended answers...its sometimes frustrating to keep initiating the convo. It can also get repetitive. He doesn't know how to sweet talk or anything like my ex used to do which is making me miss what I shared with my ex but not necessary my ex. This guy im getting to know has some mental health problems but its all under control with meds. I don't know how I really feel about him...he is quite cold with me and doesn't talk much but he is probably the most harmless guy and I know he will never hurt me.
