So we've been hanging out for the last month, at least twice a week, and lunch a few times too. But sometimes when we talk I will bring up his family or something and he changes the subject or just answers with short responses. I know that he has a rough family life, but I would like to know more about him before I commit fully.Along with that, he still tries to act like he is overly apathetic, when I know he just uses it as a cover because he is sensitive. But when he isn't doing these things he is funny, nice, cares about what I am saying and makes me happy when I am around him. I just worry that he will never open up himself to me. Sorry that this is pretty vague, but I would just like some outside opinions on what I should do. Reply to this Question

 Sweetheart,I have been in your situation. My boyfriend is somewhat a reserved and private person. The first couple of months we have been together, he was fairly quiet. I didn't like it because I talk a lot and sometimes I just want to hear his opinion or what he thinks, you know? So I told him if he could be more open with me. He was surprised because he says that he talks to me. Sure he talks to me but it wasn't anything serious... I realize that I guess he wasn't as comfortable as I was with him. Now that we've been together for almost 8 months, he's finally starting to open up and being really talkative. My main point is, I think he's just scared of opening up to you.. or just not comfortable yet. Just give him some time and just keep talking to him. You might get a little frustrated(trust me, I DID!) but if you really like the guy then why not try? I didn't give up and now I'm happily in love.Best of luck!
