A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I've been with my boyfriend for 3 weeks and all we do is physical things, everytime I ask him about his life we end up arguing. all I know is he doesn't have a good relationship with either of his parents and is in counsuling, I don't know what to do it's like I'm letting a stranger in my pants. I'm so attracted to him I don't know if I should hold on and let him come out of his shell or just leave him still wanting to be with him; either way we'll still see eachother everyday since we hang out with the same group of friends.

myp agony auntHe sounds like hes got a whole lot of baggage and hes not comfortable showing you the contents. If hes not ready hes not ready. Dont pressure him too much just let him know that youre there for him if and when he wants to talk about his issues. Talk to him about youre family and show him that youre willing to be open with him. If he feels you trust him with your personal information then he'll feel more inclined to talk to you about his. Also let him know though that it hurts you that hes not open with you, and that you feel that emotional involvement is lacking in your relationship.

Best of luck

darksecretangel agony auntHey

Well this is a hard question.

Its good to know that he is getting consulling for his problems, this tells you that at least he wants to work through his parential relationship problems.

Hun i think you should sit down with him and discuss your options with him, tell him that you are there for him and reassure him about that, but then mention how you feel about not being able to know things about his life.

You claim that all you do are "physical things", well if that is the case you should dump him, any relationship which is based on sex isnt worth it.

You mention that "you are attracted to him" how ever you have to ask your self do you love him?

Hunny you have to think which seems the better option

Good luck and keep us informed =]
