How do I get my boyfriend to be affectionate and sweet? I'm his first girlfriend but damn, hasn't he seen movies? Like OMG. But yea, how do I tell him to kiss me or hold my hand or call me cute? He called me pretty.. Twice.. -_- help me please. I'm starting to wonder why I like him at all. He's not all that. If he was it'd probably be different. Just please help.

Okay, maybe you do like him, but not as much as you thought you would. There are plenty of other guys out there. If you are willing to go through the inevitable awkwardness, hen there are some things you should understand. He is probably too shy to call you cute or flirt too much, because he may like you so much that he is terrified to blow it. He also may be so nervous at times that he is at a loss for words and all that he can get out is... You're... Prreettyy.. And maybe he is just so crazy about you that he feels as though his heart is about to pound out of his chest from beating so hard when he is around you. The best thing you can do is be honest in a positive way. Just simply say, "kiss me", and I'm sure he'll give in to your every command. And again, if you are not willing to go through the patience of him growing out of his shyness, then break up with him. He'll be broken hearted most likely, but he will live. Maybe he'll realize he needs to be more aggressive in the future, so you will have done him a favor without him realizing it. And probably would have done the next girl he ends up with a favor also. Just think about both scenarios and decide what will be best for you. Just remember, be honest and respectful. Don't beat around the bush. Think about what you are going to tell him before you say it. And keep things positive. Hope this helps!

How old are the two of you and how long have you been dating? Perhaps you two are not right for each other .
