There are a plethora of reasons for your boyfriend to want to keep your relationship on the down low. If you are still in high school (or middle school!), he could be afraid of his parents finding out, if he's not allowed to have girlfriends yet. He could be immature and be afraid of what others would think and be afraid of being ridiculed. However, any guy that's embarrassed by you is not worth your time and emotion, and that goes for any age. Perhaps he already has a girlfriend or wife and doesn't want either of you to know about each other. By keeping it "secret" you are enabling him to cheat on both you and his significant other.
