How can I show to the one I love that I care for him? What if he doesn't feel he is cared for? How can I became close to my boyfriend? Is there any way that I can make him open up his thoughts with me.

Just made him feel that you are always there for him just try not to cross the borderline. If he needs a space then made him do so. Just build your trust on him & made him feel important.

But I am involve in a long distance relationship how should I deal with it? I always tell him that I am always there for him but I never felt close to him

Long distance relationships will make you feel like this. When I first read this post I was going to suggest that there is nothing like just spending time together cuddling and just enjoying being together, but for obvious reasons that would not work for you would it? Is it not possible for you to go and visit him, or he to take some time out to come to you?

Show to him that you are the person whom he can trust; the person who understands him better; loyal as always; sincere with every promises and you intend to keep them. Cherish every single day that you are with him. Always always look at his eyes even in times of silence. Hold his hand, squeeze them as if you are telling him "I'm here." Smile. Say to him that you love him. Men are not communicative but they can tell if they are loved or not through actions.

You are right men are not communicative. But I don't want to lose my guy. During our first days he always opens up not until now.

There's no way that you can make someone open up their thoughts to you. The best that you can do is let them grow to become comfortable with you, and if he desires to be open with you, he will. But I also need to state, that a lack of openness does NOT mean that he doesn't love you. Unfortunately, many cultures and societies around the world put the males to be the emotionally (as well as physically) strong ones. The best that you can do is to be open yourself, without slowing becoming self centered. Talk to him, ask him questions about certain issues or interests. Wait for him to answer a a few moments. If he hasn't, after a minute or two, offer up your own answer to the question and watch for his responses. Let him know, verbally and physically (hugs, kisses, doing small favors such as chores, etc) that he is both loved and appreciated, but don't become too clingy. Good luck (=

Well best way to show your care, is love him unconditionally, whatever he is and however he changes in future, just double up your love and never let it go.

hi there.. let me give you some question before i move on.. 1. is he worth enough for you? because relationship must be balance.. it's not always about him..but it also about you.. both of you must take and give the same amount of love, care, passion, in a good humble communication..otherwise it's just like clap with one hand..it won't sound 2. are you care enough to yourself?look at yourself in the mirror, are u worth enough to be cared? i dont mean to be rude.. but many people look badly to be loved by someone, but they never love themself.. i.e they never look after their food, they never look after their clothes, etc.. no wonder people don't love them, they don't love themself.. please don't take this personally, i just want you to see quite a different perspective. thanx.. warm regards from me..

You have to make him feel loved all the time. Distance is not a hindrance to love. Always show your care through words at this time if your distant with each other but always make sure that if the time comes that you two will be together don't forget those words and put them in to actions. One thing also is always be there for them even if you are far. Always appreciate them in the slightest thing they are doing. We have a lot of gadgets now which you can always use in bridging the gaps between the to of you..so you might wanna call him every second of the day.but its all up to you. just make sure that all you are saying when you are far will all be put in to actions when the time comes that you will be together as one. Hope this one helps. Please give me your insights about this and i'll be happy to give you my insights as well..

hmmm its quite hare to show your care and love to a person if he/she was too far, all you have to do is to communicate with him/her dont make any excuses that your far thats why i dont have ways, there were lot of ways to do something for him/her. t. make him/her feel that even your far yet your near, let him/her feel that you know that your relationship will be last and its a matter of security and commitment.
