How can I help my bf communicate??

Question - (18 February 2007) 1 Answers - (Newest, 18 February 2007)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

Hello I was wondering if you could shed some light on this situation. Many of my friends have been in relationships where they have got really close to a guy and fallen in love. Only to find for whatever reason (maybe failed past relationships and fear of getting hurt again) the guy backs right off and builds up a wall against the relationship and his feelings,no matter what they try to do to communicate with the guy, they can't seem to get through.

My friend was in a relationship with a guy for two years, swore he loved her, then when she was ready for commitment he backed right off.She's recently got married only for this guy to say, I wish I was the one who married you and I still love you.

I find myself in a similar predicament now with my boyfriend of four years.I don't want to lose him and have tried everything to get him to communicate, but he's just shut right down. It wasn't as though we'd had any arguments but it's breaking my heart, because I cannot seem to get through to him how much I love him and want us to be together.He says he loves me, what can I do to put things right? Is he just afraid of commitment, is there anyone out there who has experienced the same and got a breakthrough? Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

AskEve agony auntYou've been with your boyfriend for 4 years but recently he seems to have become very introvert is that right? Something has happened to make him feel this way. Did you have an argument with him? Did you ask to get engaged, live together, marry him? Something has happened to make him feel this way. Think about it and get back to me with some more information about you both.
