I could really use some boyfriend advice...please?

I don't know what to do. I've been seeing my boyfriend for a few months now and he's a really shy guy. We have this crazy connection when he opens up but its always so difficult to get to that point. He's always very busy with work and school- 40 hours/week for work and 10/week for school. But in his free time I feel like he would rather do anything than hang out with me. I adore him- I think he's one of the greatest guy's I've ever met but I feel like he doesn't even want me. I feel like I'm always pushing him to hang out with me and he never wants to hang out alone; when we do we watch TV...and we actually watch TV. It doesn't help that we both live with our parents either. I've tried talking to him about it once and he just completely shut down. He got really upset and told me that I'm right, but that's not what I wanted. I don't want him to try to force himself to be with me if he isn't happy. I just can't figure it out. I have a few guy friends that have been a really good friend to me for as long as I can remember, and I've never had this problem with any of them. Sometimes I don't understand why he doesn't break up with me...what's the point in being together if you can't share moments or conversations that are meaningful? I don't talk about it with my friends that much but the ones who have witnessed how he's acted towards me don't think that we should be together. I care about him so much and I want to do anything I can to make it work... yeah we're in our early 20's and it shouldn't be serious- I'm not looking for serious. Is it me? Am I pushing him away? Or is he just too scared to break up with me?

What do I do. please, I need some honest advice. I just don't know what to do anymore and I want to fix it. He tells me that I've been the "perfect girlfriend" but I don't believe his BS. What's really going on???

    well he is extremely shy, and one has to wonder how many girlfriends has he had...

    and if ur in ur early 20's i dont understand why he not wanting to to get you naked at any opportunity, I have to wonder are you sure that he is not gay,

    since ur the perfect girfriend do you talk on the phone or via the net??

    do you go out with ur or his friends?

    It sounds like you both have so many un answered questions, may be a one on one session of 20 questions to find out about both of ur feeling, or what or where your future together lies....

    only the 2 of you will know for sure , so plz be honest with each other and see where you go from there...

    he seems very shy,

    he obviously, loves you alot but dosent know how to show or put it.

    i mean, if its making you sad, thinking he dosent feel comfortable with u, or anything like that dont just give up because you never know what could happen in the future, it may get better with time?
