<human>: My boyfriend and I have been living together for about 7 months and have talked about what what we would like to see in the future. Marriage is something we've discussed and it seems we're on the same page. However, there is one thing I'm not sure I could get over if a such a commitment were to take place.

I'll be the first to admit I'm extremely emotional. I would never expect my boyfriend act anywhere close to how I do. However, he can be so void of emotion. Whenever I talk to him about something that is bothering me, he usually doesn't respond for a few minutes and continues with the conversation as if nothing happened (like, so what do you want to do now?) It honestly baffles me that he isn't bothered when I am visibly upset. I've told him what I want from him in these situations (hug, verbal comforting etc.) but to no avail.

It has been 2 days since we've talked and I want to bring up the subject of therapy. He's had some issues in his childhood about opening up that may or not be the cause of his extreme stoicism. I feel incredibly selfish for even thinking this but I don't see this relationship lasting without some resolve.

I know in the heat of things I haven't mentioned any positives to this relationship, but I really am happy otherwise. We are partners in crime that create adventure in everyday situations. I want this to work and breaking up would be a last resort. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated

<bot>: Boyfriend is incapable of empathy and it causes me emotional pain. Want to suggest therapy but not sure if that's selfish and rude.
