I've been talking to this guy for over a year and a half. Before we started talking...we were friends. We're not exclusive yet and I think it's because I'm not the one he feels he can open up to. He's always been this way, even to close friends and family. We're able to have good conversation and he knows in his gut that he can trust me...but when he gets stressed out, he doesn't want to talk to me or see me (or anyone for that matter) I've been patient with him and I probably will always be patient with him...but it makes me feel bad when I'm not the one he can open up to. What should I do or say? Cause I want us to be an official couple (cause my feelings are growing and he is it for me!) but we can't until something changes. Otherwise...should we just maintain as friends?

estanie agony auntHe says he definitely wants to be more then friends but likes us to maintain our friendship in our relationship. I just can't get this guy to talk to me or see me if he's stressed out. It's making me feel like I'm not the one he could fall in love for...I don't know what to do with him but I have been very patient with him and I can't take it anymore. I fell in love with him but I know he doesn't feel the same...and I want to be that everything for him but I can't if he doesn't talk to me. What should I do?
