Q: Hi DG,
My boyfriend and I have been together for the past few years. The first part of our relationship had its ups and downs, but we are so amazing now! Here's the thing though - he hasn't said "I love you". We've been into each other from the start, and I've been saying it to him for 2 years now so you can see why I'm upset!
Sometimes I'll make comments or joke about it, which I know I shouldn't do, but I just can't help it. He didn't grow up with the ideal home life that I had, and I know for a fact that he hasn't said those three words since his dad passed away (before I met him).
I know he cares so much for me. He shares so much of himself with me and is more open and honest with me than he has ever been with anyone. We talk about spending the rest of our lives together and I know that his heart is mine. What should I do? I tell him I love him all the time ... I would love to hear it back!
A: That’s bad news! He’s got major issues and he has to solve them or you won’t get where you want to be with him. You should have a real adult conversation and see why he isn’t telling you he loves you. If he can’t have the conversation, you should question the validity of the relationship.
Have you ever flat out asked if he loves you back? Start with that. It’ll be scary but so worth it if you can get him to talk.
Good luck!
Please keep me posted.
Love the Madness,
DG
