My boyfriend and I have been dating for 8 months and everything is great - we have a lot in common, he makes me laugh, he is wonderful in bed, all in all he is amazing and makes me really happy.

The only problem is - he doesn't make me feel attractive, ever. He never tells me that I am beautiful, or sexy or anything like that.

It is really hard because my previous boyfriend used to make me feel attractive all of the time. He would constantly tell me verbally and wrote me beautiful letters.

I've talked to him about it many times -- and I've almost dumped him because of it. He understands what my need is, but he says he just has a hard time being romantic in that way. He also says he needs time to be comfortable enough around me to act that way. I personally think these are lame excuses.

He has had 8 serious girlfriends in his life, and all of them have complained about this problem, and some have broken up with him because of it.

I'm willing to give him time because I think we have something really special, but I can't accept this flaw in the long run -- it would drive me crazy, because it is very important to me that a boyfriend finds me attractive and thinks that I am special.

Is there anything that I can do?
