I don't know that I can offer you any earth-shattering advice, but I think in some ways, you and I approach relationships in a very similar fashion. I totally understand that you are supporting and being there and you just want to feel as if that is returned and you don't feel it. Like virtually everyone before me has said, this relationship is still new. You have not known each other that long, comparatively speaking and you are learning the subtle nuances that make FF who he is and vice versa. Sometimes it's hard to see the forest for the trees, so to speak and I think you and I both have a tendency to do that in relationships. I think it is great that you communicate with each other and hope you can continue to do so and I hope that you ultimately find a way to put your mind at ease and just relax and enjoy.
