I think a lot of it depends on how old he is. If he's a 40 year old guy he should be well adjusted enough to admit when he loves a woman. A lot of young guys just aren't there yet. It's possibly part immaturity, they don't want their friends to think they're whipped or stupid or whatever, and part fear, loving someone can be really scary, it can feel like giving up a part of yourself. It doesn't make it less hurtful when he won't declare for you. It sucks to feel like someone's secret. And it DOES make it feel less genuine when he won't cop to it. It's okay to be a little mad, but make sure you listen to his reasoning and let him know why it pissed you off! Good luck! <3
