if I am reading this right, you are wanting him to know what you want and provide this to you, without you telling him what you want and then feeling like he is with holding for not giving you what you want? I feel like you are asking him to read your mind and this may be how he is reading it as well. after only a few months together, he may be uncertain if he is judging your needs correctly and fears acting because he may be wrong. he wants your input so that he can meet your needs accordingly. take care.
