I have been with my guy for two months. I really care about him and he knows this. For the past couple of days, he won't be affectionate or anything. I told him about it the other night and he said that he never acts that way with anyone. I want to be with him but on the other hand, I want someone that acts like they like the other person. I don't want nothing to happen to us but if he keeps that up, I'll have to break up with him and that is the last thing that I want. I need someones opinion. I wish he would understand how much I care for him and since this is hurting our relationship, he might start showing that he cares for me. Well, that is if he still does. HELP ME, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

Butterfly,
2 months and he is already not showing a lot of affection... damn what would he be like in a year...
Listen, it is a possibility that your boyfriend just isn't a touchy feely kind of guy... HOWEVER obviously it is important to you.
With that said, you really need to sit down and talk to him about this... if he tells you again that he doesn't act that way with ANYONE tell him you're NOT JUST ANYONE, you are his girlfriend and you feel cared for when he shows you his affection.
Don't get nuts here... just let him know that while you can understand he isn't a touchy feely kind of guy, that you want to know he cares about you and cares about the relationship and find a way to compromise.
After only 2 months girl... while it's great to be comfortable in a relationship it ISN'T okay to be so comfortable you're taking the other person for granted... he needs to figure that out.
