<human>: Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?

I've been with my bf for about 6 months now. We have such a deep connection intellectually and passionately, but sometimes I feel like he doesn't exactly understand my needs in a relationship. I'm a hopeless romantic and I love doing sweet things for him and showing him how much I love him. He can be romantic too, but I feel like he doesn't show me the love I need or give me the confidence to feel like my heart is safe with him. He tells me he loves me and we usually have amazing sex. I just don't think he fully understands what I need to feel loved physically and mentally by him. What is the key to having a better communication line about what you need sexually as well as mentally?
