truecap and HappyCapper Thank you. I was beginning to feel guilty as he is taking my "No" as a rejection which is not at all true I love him to pieces and told him many times that I am only and only his. its just that we have to wait a little bit just till we get married. And yes I will stick to my values. Thank you so much. Feeling quite relieved

I tried to make him see the difference but he is still in rage throwing tantrums that he doesn't want anything from me even after marriage. This matter has become quite complicated. He is the kind of person who hold grudges forever.

I think you guys need to learn how to communicate - you are getting married, for crying out loud. If you can't manage things like this now, I fear what's going to happen when you are married. If I were you, I would really work on that as of now.

Unless he doesn't already know your values let him know now and live true cap said stick to your guns. He'll respect you for it in the long run. Caps do like to test and a good chase.

Well yes he is taking me somewhat for granted but I see myself resposible for such a behavior. We have gone through alot during the first two years of our relationship I was the one to initiate fights and throw tantrums,(my aries sun and mercury ) and he was the one to compromise every time even our discussions used to turn into fights. He hates fighting which is why he started avoiding me, now he doesn't initiate as much txt and calls as he used to which I can understand. Now I have learned to compromise with that as I am the one who is responsible for that.
As far as him feeling trapped or restrained is concerned? No, these words doesn't exist in his dictionary. I am the one who is more socially aware which annoys him all the time

despite all the restraints that are put on us he know his way to get whatever he want and forces me to do the same (like meeting each other and all) which serves as a base for most of our fights.

I agree we need to learn how to communicate, He now just ignores serious topics in order to avoid fights which won't do any good I know, Even if something is bothering him he will just start to get glum and expects me to read between the lines and when I ask him directly about it he says nothing is wrong and keep on saying the same to avoid any discussion lol. He is quite stubborn and hold grudges forever.click to expand

Imo, this is not about who is at fault for what, but about you comming to a common consent and learning tools to communicat with one another. You need to start working together! Yes, it's tricky, but there is no time to lose. The longer this takes, the more it will wash out and be accepted. Is that the way you want to live for the rest of your life?
I know this may sound harsh, but you had this issue months ago already and it doesn't seem to have improved and the price for not acting is huge. Please do something about it.click to expand

No it didn't sound harsh at all. Whatever you said is true and I am already trying to get him open up i even tried to discuss the same with him (face to face) when we met but all in vain, he kept on saying "everything is fine you are probably over thinking it". That is the only reply whenever I try to work things out. Really have no idea what to do with that so eventually learning to compromise. What else can be done ?click to expand

You are 50% of this relationship and if you are bothered, that means that everything in your relationship is not fine. How do you respond to that line of his? The trouble in your case is that you meet so very seldom that the risk is that every time you do meet is tainted by argument and not by the enjoyment of each other's company. You still need to discuss this, but you can not make your relationship about constant issues either.click to expand

Why do you think he only wants to talk about surface level stuff?

In order to avoid fights.
No matter what I say it doesn't affect him. He is very stubborn he pretends that nothing is wrong. If I say something that rubs him the wrong way he would just says "ok" he never confronts me in order to avoid any fight. He thinks that even a small matter will turn into a large fight (which actually happens all the time) which will continue for days so it's better to remain silent on anything(including discussions) that can lead to fight.click to expand
