whichcraft Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 My boyfriend and I are in our mid forties and we are in a long distance relationship. It is hard for me as I am a sensual person and I need intimacy but my boyfriend doesn't understand that. We have been dating for 3 years and for the last 2 years, I have been trying to convince him that marriage is a great idea. We are both divorced and he didn't want to go down that road again. I have read many articles on line about men and dating and I fear that the reason he doesn't want to marry is me and not his personal preference. How can I tell? He doesn't like to talk about his feelings and he keeps getting frustrated or mad when I bring up the subject. We're in our 40's so I need to talk about the subject, especially in a long distance relationship when we hardly see each other. I need to know if there is going to be something substancial down the road. What advice can you give? Thanks.

d'Arthez Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 Chances are he got burned in the marriage, and that is why he does not want to entertain the thought of marrying you. That does not mean he is unwilling to invest in the relationship.
