There comes an age when people don't change a lot. This is possibly what you are facing with your boyfriend. You would probably get more attention if you didn't always put him first, but it is a risky venture and not something you are natural with. Maybe try dropping the "mushy" stuff and see how he reacts to that. He is so used to your attention that it might get him to open up some. This is a tough place for you to be and I wish you luck.
