<human>: Can you condense the text into a few key points?

Hi there. F here, with M, both early 20's, together for a year.

My boyfriend and I, though we love each other very much, have zero communication skills and very different ways of reacting at things. 

Recently I've been undergoing a lot of stress but was holding up just fine, until a death in the family made everything turn to shit. I turned to my family, to my friends, and to my boyfriend; however, as I found out a day later, telling my boyfriend about what was going on made him "uncomfortable," as in, he doesn't know how to react to my "outbursts" because he "doesn't like it" and believes in being "mentally tough and moving on."

I'm starting to realize (after a whole year, does that say something about the way we communicate?) that while I can sometimes get emotional, he has a very detached outlook on life - and relationships. He doesn't know how to deal with me when I'm in a "mood," even though I told him I just needed to be held or something. In my opinion, loving someone is pretty much also finding a best friend, someone you can let yourself be vulnerable with and share your fears with. He doesn't seem to think the same.

I'm starting to feel inadequate and like I'm somehow supposed to repress my feelings to keep him from feeling "uncomfortable" and like I'm being weak for needing his support. The idea just makes me resentful and angry and want to run far, far away from him.

I'm not exactly sure what I'm asking for, but if any of you could give me some insight, I'd appreciate it. I don't know how much of this I should take, if we should keep going, or if we're fundamentally incompatible. We've had issues before but in his eyes we're doing just fine.
