My boyfriend and I have been together for nearly a year now, and I care about him very much. In fact, I love him. I haven't told him this yet, because I am too cowardly to say it first and was hoping he would. Another reason I wanted to hear it from him first is so that I know it's sincere and not brought about just because he feels he's obligated to say it back. It's beginning to get frustrating though because anytime I try to mention anything about my feelings for him he doesn't seem to take me seriously and just changes the subject. I'm not sure if it's because he doesn't feel strongly for me the way I do for him, or it's because he's not an "emotional guy". But honestly, I don't want him to always be discussing his "feelings" and crying in front of me and all that kind of crap, all I want is to know how he feels about me. What should I do? And also, has anyone ever been in the same situation? What did you do?
