Chris pulled that whole I love you but not as much as you love me thing on me once. I got really mad at him. But atleast he's being honest. Maybe he feels like he isnt giving as much love as he's recieving but he dosent know how to give more? I've felt that way before. It makes you feel like your using the person.
Have you told him how much you feel that y'all dont communicate?
Do the two of you start to fight and yell alot when you do try to communicate?
Me and chris had that problem...Mainly this happens because the both of you are being selfish and closed minded. If you stay calm and open minded to what he has to say he will do the same back. But as soon as you get mad and aggravted he will too.
Try telling him that y'all need to communicate and then just stay very calm, and if he starts to freak just be like..."baby, calm down, i'm not upset so you have no reason too be" everytime he starts to freak...
Well good luck!!
