Thankyou for the replies. I do think he is in love with me (on my good days) but it does seem we are incompatible. I need a lot more communication than him, and it makes me dissatisfied that we barely talk. And even if he tries to communicate more for my sake, it is clear that he feels forced to to keep me, rather than actually wanting it. He is a much more solitary person who prefers to do his own thing, while I would like to feel more connected to my partner. I would prefer someone who makes it clear they love talking to & being with me, and would drop other things for me, which I honestly, perhaps shamefully, would do for him were he the same. I wonder if it is because this is my first relationship, while he has had quite a few before me, that I seem more 'obsessed'. I guess I have to distance myself a little and figure out if it's worth it.
