Some guys honestly don't like talking about relationships but sometimes it needs to be discussed. I would be honest with him and say, "Look we really need to talk about ____" Maybe that would be a good place to start?

Being open and honest is the best way to have a healthy relationship with your significant other. It's best to just be up front about things. Dropping hints can often go unnoticed and leave you frustrated. When you are open about your relationship and have good communication with your partner you can have a very fulfilling relationship for both of you.

Well I personally sit down in a quiet place with my girlfriend to talk to her about our relationship.

Go to boyfriend, and remember that as he is first your friend then your boyfriend, talk to him about the stuff you want to talk openly. Elaborate your feelings as much as you can, assure him that this is what you feel with compassion and love.

You should make sure you two are alone and then tell him you need to talk. You should sit him down and have a heart to heart talk. Make sure the situation is comfortable and not awkward.

Wait until you are both in a relaxed safe environment. Use words that express how your feel without blame or expectation on him. For eg. "I am worried that I am ............" or "I am not sure how I feel about our relationship". Take ownership of your part in the conversation and hopefully he will not feel pressured but able to express how he feels too.

Easy! Take it easy, take it softly, and definitely affect the "I feel" statements. They sound funny, but really help to communicate what YOU need, and how TOGETHER you'll work it out.

Be straightforward about it. Go to a quiet private place. Turn off your phones or any other distractions. Let him know how much he matters to you. Maintain a very calm and gentle tone and posture. Try not to get overly emotional and tell him exactly what is bothering you and how you think it cannot be fixed. Keep reminding him that he is important to you

The best way to do go about talking about relationships is just to bring it up. Pick a time when it is you two alone and he is in a 'decent' or good mood.

Talk to him like you would want him to talk to you. Try and create a safe environments for opinions. It's important you both try not to take things offensively, and try to be kind and compensation.
