What does he mean?

I have been with my wonderful boyfriend for almost 10 months but lately (like the last 2 months) he has starting saying things and I don\'t know how he means them. First he said that I was only the second girl he has ever opened up to and truely loved. Then he said a while after that, that none of his relationships except one have lasted past 9 months. Then yesterday he said that only 3 of his past relationships have made it to the summer because someone always breaks up with the other before summer time. Then he looked at me and smiled and I said that I hoped it was a good thing that we\'ve been together so long and that we have made it to the summer. He said that he didn\'t mean it that way. He didn\'t want me to wonder if he thought it was a good thing we were still together. (I think he does think it is a good thing), but I just had to ask. I don\'t know if I\'m paranoid or if he means that I better work extra hard on keeping our relationship because I\'m lasting longer than most of his other g/f\'s and if I do something (even if it is little) to mess things up (at all) then we\'re over. I guess I may just be paranoid because I really like him and don\'t want to EVER loose him and because this is the longest relationship I\'ve ever been in (although I\'ve been in a good number of relationships). What do you think?

I think he's just happy to be in a relationship with you, and if he keeps on telling you your progress, you shouldn't interpret as "I'm going to break up with you if you mess up just once.", though if you're feeling paranoid and don't know why he's saying those things, the best thing to do is.. dun dun dun.. ask him. we aren't your boyfriend, we don't know what's running through his head or why and we can't answer all of your questions. Relationships are about communication, if you are confused, the best thing to do is discuss it without going behind his back.

I'm sure he'll be more than willing to talk to you, because that is why he is there.

^^I agree

It sounds to me like he is used to someone else ending it, so maybe he was mentioning it to see where you stand. It doesn't sound like anything bad to me, I think he was just fishing to be reassured it's all good.

"fishing to be reassured"

^Took the words out of my mouth. He just wants you to say "Oh no, I'm not going to break up with you." He's being paranoid so tell him what he wants to hear. As long as it's true, of course.

If he brings up the subject I'll say something to him, if he doesn't I'll let it go.
