wondering if i'm the asshole afterall.

(I'm 16 for context.) My boyfriend (17) is almost perfect. Texts first, wants to wait until marriage, genuinely really cares about me and wants to keep me safe, extremely honest, really funny, strong, handsome, the list goes on and on. Except for that when he gets upset he completely shuts down and acts like he doesn't care about me. It doesn't happen often at all, maybe twice a month, and never lasts for more than a day, but it makes me feel really hollow inside. He avoids me, never asking me how I am (which is unusual) and giving very short emotionless responses when I try to connect with him during these times. When he snaps out of it he apologizes and feels terrible about it but it doesn't change the fact that it happened and it hurt. Am I overreacting and this is normal for teen boys or is this something he won't grow out of?? I feel like I'm going a little insane here lol.

i think you might both be at fault. whatever happens that makes him upset is obviously an issue but, communication is important. if you guys want it to last, you have to get a way to get him to talk about how he feels and why he feels that way. you can never grow in a relationship if you don't know what upsets your partner. just let him know that its okay for him to talk about how he feels, as long as he isn't yelling.

he isn't ever upset at me. he tells me it is various insecurities that make him upset. i always explain that he can talk to me about whatever but he never wants to. i reassure him that i love him perfectly the way he is, but it is an internal issue apparently. i just feel stuck. he's great though, i never want to leave him it just don't know if this is healthy for either of us. thanks for the advice.
