He is of course your official boyfriend,but you are just beginning to understand him,he is a teenager , he is like you beginning to find himself and there are things that he may not share.

He may not tell you that this relationship ,is at times confusing for him.He won't tell you that there are some days, he would like to go off with the guys. There is a big game that they are all going to see. But,he had forgotten about it,and had promised that he would take you to a concert.He would have liked to tell you that,but knows that you may get upset,and think he was just blowing you off,and that you might over react and carry on in ways that are new to him.He had debated going anyway.

He may not tell you that he really is at times, insecure in this new relationship. That it is sometimes hard for him , even though he thinks he may love you. The relationship you have makes demands on the time, that used to be his. His parents may be pressuring him to work harder on his grades.This is the time he needs to focus on his preparation for college,as well as finding the part time job in order to prepare for the expenses it will incur.

He is happy that you are all he expected you to be,he finds you a loving person. He won't tell you that there are times when he wishes you were not so strong in your decision, to postpone having sex until a later time. His buddy's are all bragging about the conquests they have made,and he wonders if he is missing something that everybody shares. He would easily succumb to all those feelings that he has, and at times he is feeling almost mad. He will not admit to you,that it sometimes makes him feel, that his affections have been rebuffed.

Because it is important for him to feel like he is in control,he may not tell you,that the couple state ,is smothering at times.He may be feeling that you want to run his life and that you may not be as good, in sharing of his time.He will soon be taking a trip with his family,and looking at some schools. The colleges he likes may take him far from you. Although he thinks your special,he knows that things will change, as you both go off to school and see each other less.

The most important thing he may have failed to tell you, is how much he really cares.He has ambivalence about you, and what he has begun to realize,that you both must let each other go into new and exciting paths.

He may not ever tell you that you are most special to him, and more then you will ever know. He is hoping you will not forget him and will always keep in touch ,and that perhaps in later times you will again be a couple ,or at least the best of
friends.
