I agree with Rhapsody. The harder you push the more he'll withdraw?

You have to talk about you and what you'd like him to do, practical, for you, ask his opinion (and want it, not just want him to "talk"), etc. He can only know what you want if you tell him; if we can't get therapists, who are trained, to read our minds, I don't think mere mortal men have a chance?
