<human>: Hey all! Thanks for reading!

I've been with my boyfriend for five months, both in love. He is slightly emotionally damaged and sometimes has issues expressing himself unless I bring up the emotional topics (this is due to several bad past relationships with being cheated on, he also was with a girl for seven years, they were engaged and it ended cause she cheated multiple times). I have also been in long term relationships although not as long as his seven year one (I have had two relationships of about two and a half years each, but never been engaged) Not sure how much of this matters just thought I would give you some context as it may change your advice. 

Just wondering, is it too soon to ask him where he sees the relationship going and if he sees or wants a future with us? He's very damaged emotionally like I said but this hasn't been a huge issue in our relationship, we are working through any challenge he says he loves me, always wants to be with me, ect although can be distant at times). But I am just nervous about bringing it up, do not want to freak him out with getting too serious too fast, even though obviously stuff like moving in and marriage if we both wanted it wouldn't be for a long while still, I'm scared even talking about it may scare him or push him away? The fact that he has been engaged kind of relates to why I'm a little nervous with asking, as not sure if he would like still like to get married one day. But need to know if this is going anywhere so I don't end up wasting my time.

Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?
