How do I get my Boyfriend to take it to the next step

Just pick your moment and when u feel it is right. Talk to him about it(and the risks of what could happen) and depending on what he says you will have your answer
Just know if he says no that doesn't mean he doesn't love you.
He may not be ready. Patients is a virtue.

Well... show him that you want to take it to the next step tell him how u feel
