what do men really like?

He probably wants sex. If he's too much of a wimp to come out and say it, then dump him. He sounds immature. And you sound co-dependent.

I am no guy but I know the problem. Sometimes people just don't think you really mean something when you tell them over and over again how much you love them. Try giving him some space, cooking his favorite foods, and doing activities he likes. This is what he means by the little things. He wants you to prove it by not just saying it, and acting like it, too. Don't admit it constantly, because it might get on his nerves. However, if you cut down on telling him that, it will mean more when you say it. Let me explain this a bit more simple. Everyone likes pizza, right? Well, it is good every once in awhile. How would you feel if you ate too much pizza on a daily basis? Like it isn't truely very good anymore? This is similar to the way your boyfriend feels. Maybe if this doesn't work, give him some space. There might be something bothering him, maybe you might be unconsciously flirting with other guys? Or maybe it has nothing to do with you. Try your best. If you do all of these and nothing has improved, it's time for a good talk, face to face, not the phone, not on text or AIM, in real life. Person to person. Face to face. Ask him if there is something bothering him. Confront him yourself. Don't let a friend do it for you, because then it has no effect at all. Also ask him if there was something you could do for him. Eventually things should clear up. I hope I helped. Good luck!

Sounds like your boyfriend is insecure, or he is playing games with you.

In my opinion you have done all you can do, and if he will not communicate with you what he feels is missing from your relationship, then what the heck are you suppose to do?

He needs to grow up and quit playing these games.

You should not have to jump thru hoops like some kind of circus monkey just to prove your love to him.

You've already told him how you feel, and from what you have said here, I can't think of what else you can do, particularly since he will not tell you what he means by "little things will prove it."

I would just be honest with him, and ask him what you are asking us. If he continues to not tell you, then move on and find a real man who knows how to communicate with his lady.

He's hinting at se*ual conquests. Either what your doing is too vanilla or he is too insecure. Try suggesting to him a trade where each of you gives three pointers to improve the relationship. Agree to do those things (if you are okay with them) for a period of a week and then come back and evaluate the results.

Jennifer, if that is your name. I am going to tell you right now that your boyfriend does not love you at all. I know what love is and that my friend is not love. Am telling you right now to break up with him A.S.A.P, don't think about it just do it. You my love him but he does not love you. He keeps telling you to "prove it" what he really wants is for you to have sex with him, but girl once its gone you'll never get it back, am talking about your Virginity. So like i said break up with him now.

P.S dont know how old you are but if you are 12to16 then this well help, if your not then just for get about what i wrote

Little things is (and HE should do the same for you!).

Touch of the hand on the shoulder as you pass by.

A card for his birthday.

When you feel he is having a bad day; a quick phone call to say hello, how is your day...

Buy something small and inexpensive, that he will like. For example, he may like a rock band. Find a cheap patch or sticker and buy it for him.

All these are quick, cheap, and easy. Guys like NON VERBAL (and gals, too!) things that show them you love them.

Love is NOT the price of a gift.

i"m 37 now when i was younger and said prove it, i still do"NT know what the hell i meaNT . in retrospect it"s the thing you say when you do"nt want the focus on yourself and want the other person to bear the burden of carry ing a serious relationship . ps ca"nt spell carrying ?

it all depends on the man. most just want sex, some what a good relationship, some might even want ot be left alone. but if he seems to be the right one for you... go for it. but if it does not go right... you have one friend to help you along(ME).

little things: rub his tummy when it aches, give him the last cookie, make him pancakes, bring him soup when he's sick, let him have the remote control when he really wants it, leave him little notes in his lunch bag if you ever pack a lunch for him, pick up his drycleaning if he really needs it and won't have time to pick it up. Things like this--LITTLE things that show you really care.

I think guys who usually say "prove it" they dont really believe in love. I know I dont.
