My boyfriend is being secretive about his family what should I do?

I just started dating this guy, his name's Stephan, a few months back. Though it's weird because he never talks about his family. When I asked him if he has any living relatives he just gave the very vague answer of "none that I talk to." What does that even mean? I don't want to seem pushy, but I feel like there's this dark secret he's hiding from me and I just can't put my finger on it. We're at a good part in our relationship ( we've been to a decade dance ( It's a thing my highschool does) as well as a founders day celebration ( Weird, but my town's old so it happens). I really like him, but I feel like if he doesn't open up soon I should just tell him to hit the sack. Tell me what to do anonymous people of yahoo answers! I hate this boy drama!

Update:

There's also this guy I've seen once or twice by the name of Damon I think is pretty cute. Should I give Stephan a break and try out this new guy? Or should I give my bf the benefit of the doubt? I know Damon's still in love with his ex Katherine, or at least I assume he is, but hey he's " sexy danger guy" as my friends like to call him and I find that quite alluring.

    Why do you assume it's some horrible secret? Maybe they're just going through some tough times and he doesn't want to be judged by anyone. Stop being so pushy. If he wants to talk about his family he will.

    Maybe he just isn't close to his family. I would say the same about mine, as I actually only have contact with a handful of them.

    Boys are weird. We have very few secrets, but they are very, very, very deep and we don't want anyone except the right person to know. Eventually once you get close enough he will tell you, just give it time.

    why would him not talking about his family mean that you should dump him. if you really like him, you'll only care about him and not them. He might have problems with them. him saying that he doesn't talk to any is a sign that he doesn't like them. just ask him. "why don't you say much about your family?" he'll most likely explain it to you. If he says something like "it doesn't matter" then just ask him if he really dislikes them. He won't get mad.

    You're the one making it a drama. If he doesn't want to talk about it then respect that and leave it alone.

    Maybe he's seperated from his family, let him tell when he wants to.
