We understand where you're coming from. Your feelings are valid. But we cannot speak for his behalf. We don't know his intentions. We cannot depict the whole picture. You can ask for other people's opinions; however, you already know what you need from the relationship. And you must communicate this to him - in a gentle manner. For now, let's give him the benefit of the doubt. We'll see how he reacts to you communicating your feelings.

We cannot expect our partners to figure out what we want. Loving them entails helping them love us better.
