Should i go with his words or his actions?

As they say, actions speak louder than words. He's got something on his mind, give him some time and space. You say you've both been hurt bad and only dating a few months. He may have realized that he's got strong feelings for you and he's a bit scared. I've been going through a similar scenario with my current boyfriend. We've been dating for 1 1/2 years and he still has a hard time with admitting he loves me. He'll say it over the phone, but rarely to my face. I know what my feelings for him are and I'm trying to be patient with him as he's a very good man. If you think he's worth waiting for, then wait, but stay in touch.
