Juventa2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Hi all, I've been dating this man for almost 8 months now. He's going to be 38, I'm 42. We spend all of our free time together including weekends, unless we make plans to something separately with our friends. I've met his family and most of his friends. We are affectionate towards each other and we for the most part, we get along well. We have a week long vacation planned next month to the Caribbean next month and we are both really looking forward to it! Tickets have been purchased! There are a few things that have me confused about the relationship. 1) He has not told me that he loves me (I'm developing strong feelings for him) and 2) He only kisses me during sex. Is this normal? Should I ask him to kiss me when we are not having sex? I'm a very affectionate person and love to smooch! I'm lost and don't know how to deal with this. I was married for 9 years before and have only had one other long term relationship, so I don't know how to react to someone like him. I understand that communication is key, especially in a relationship that has lasted this long, but I'm hesitant to bring it up, because I really don't know how. Any advice or opinions is certainly appreciated! Thanks.

Also, why don't you tell him you love him first and see what happens. He might just not express himself easily.

Also, why don't you tell him you love him first and see what happens. He might just not express himself easily. I honestly don't think that is the case because from what he's told me about his previous relationships, he seems like the type of man that gives 100% if he feels that the woman is being honest and open. He also had a bad break up with his ex and claimed that he was in love with her.
