Hello! Just want you to know that you should feel comfortable about telling your partner everything :) sometimes you don't feel that way and that's okay! They must be understanding and sentimental to what ever you have to say . You should be able to have an open ended discussion with your partner and trust that it's not always going to be easy but you'll get through it with them and it'll really show them you care ! Guys don't get hints , I'm female but I've learned that you just have to straight up let them know ! Hope I could help :)

First, I would ask the question, to yourself, about what do you want out of the relationship and second, how do you want your partner or boyfriend to know about you in a relationship as a person. It is through relating as individuals that makes your significant other understand what you desire and respond to your need.

Everyone has their own specific ways of dealing with significant issues which arise in life. One particular personal conflict which may periodically arise, is a need to discuss with a partner, the relationship itself. The intent of “the talk†can be for a variety of reasons. Two examples, for instance, are that one may merely want to assess their partner’s thoughts and feelings, or conversely, one may desire to end the relationship altogether.
Regardless of one's motivations for confronting their partner with a need to have a talk, it is best, in my opinion, to be prepared beforehand---before asking and before commencing with the discussion. I personally grab pen and paper. I determine, truthfully, what my intentions inevitably entail---what do I want to see happen as a result of this talk? I determine if my expectations and means of arriving at said, are reasonable, both from my standpoint as well as his. I then visualize how my concerns and respective potential solutions will affect my partner. Will he react appropriately? This determines how I will share my thoughts---will I write a letter, or interact directly? I consider my safety, and I determine the most effective route in order to achieve successful results. I proceed to write letter, or I request we have a talk. Regardless, I am focused. I have mental preparedness.

You should be able to talk to your boyfriend about anything. Your boyfriend is supposed to be your bestfriend, and the main component to any relationship is communication and trust.

It should be easy, if you have to struggle to have a conversation with him then maybe it is not the right relationship for you.

Whenever my fiancee and I get into a disagreement. I always make sure to resolve the issue before we go to bed. I believe it is important to sit alone and write down all of my concerns, how I would like to remedy the concern, and then what things we can do in the future to avoid it happening again. Communication is KEY. I cannot stress that enough. And Knowing how to communicate is even more important. I ALWAYS try to approach my partner after we have both had time to cool down and avoid raising my voice. Even if he starts to raise his. By keeping a low tone I know I am not going to aggravate the situation.

In my experience, the best way to confront anyone about something is simply to be honest, and communicate openly. If it helps to write out your thoughts first to organize them, I highly advise it.

Ok well .. If he doesn't want to talk about it maybe do it over a dinner outing or coffee, but if you want to bring it up than try asking him how he feeling or if he sees it as a serious relationship
