But still. That was September! It was months and months and months ago. A lot has changed since then. He's taken time off work to be with you and Marc, he did super sweet romantic sappy stuff for V-day, etc etc etc.
Just because it's been closed for discussion doesn't mean things haven't changed, that the R hasn't grown. September was also almost 6 months ago. When you first start dating someone there are milestones where it becomes serious, when you first say ILY, where you start talking about moving in and M. This is no different in some ways, and very different in others. I'm sure he's sensitive about the M and D stuff. And feels guilty.
But not dealing with the issues won't make them go away. Even if you don't talk them out, they need to be addressed. If talking won't work, write a letter or an e-mail. Be a little creative here.
And give him the space to grow. Let him meet your good expectations of him more often!
I'm just babbling now. Kalni and Ali would obviously have much more insight into your situation than me. But hang in there. ((((((Michelle))))))
