ASK REAL GUYS

Dear ASK REAL GUYS: Why is it so hard for guys to talk about their relationships or what they want? How can I get my boyfriend to open up?

Matt: Everyone communicates differently and has varying degrees of comfort when talking about their feelings. I'd start by talking about smaller, easier things to talk about and as he becomes more comfortable sharing his thoughts, ask questions that aren't too direct. If it's important for him to let you know his feelings, he will.
