I don’t know how Boyfriend feels about me, should I just outright ask?

I don’t know whether to just outright text my boyfriend to ask him whether he actually has any feeling towards me.

It’s been a year and daily I get texts about what he is doing, going to do, what he ate etc but I never know how he feels about me. I’m starting to feel awkward when I send vulnerable texts like I love you or miss you today. He will reply with a “you to” or a “do you” or an “awww”. He will never send anything to me first.

I started a thread about his behaviour in that I thought maybe he has some traits of autism etc. He does appear to and I’m not sure if he maybe doesn’t understand his feelings or how to articulate them. It’s confusing me greatly and making me question my own like should I even be wanting some loving texts from him.

There were other issues I explained on my other thread about the fact he hoards and can’t throw anything away it makes him extremely anxious. Not being able to keep still, starting jobs and not finishing. Regardless of that I think the problem is mine in the fact I need to hear things and I don’t.

You're just not compatible with this guy and that's ok.
There are plenty of other guys out there who can meet your needs.
Cut your losses and start dating again.
