It could be OCD. But it could also be GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder) or any number of other things, including co-dependency. Perhaps you should seek a mental health professional to help you sort things out so that you can be the kind of person you think someone like your bf would want to be with.
Does that make sense?

You sound like you want to be a closer boyfriend with him more than you want to find out what is wrong with him. I am sure your parents don't make him feel comfortable and he gets nervous, then he gets more nervous wanting to make hits on you. He wanted to get to second base with you and got more nervous. Due to his epeliptic seizures he probably hasn't spent a lifetime honing in his macho ladies man moves.

Then he just stopped because he might have felt sort of out of place, but he loves you a lot. You need to go to him and make sure he is OK. That is what you can do. Then you need to decided if you want to go farther as a girlfriend or not, that includes letting him become your husband. I believe in safe sex so never let that escape you.

Then after that if he needs or wants to go see a doctor about his anxiety. He may or maynot want to. I think your parents need to stay out of the picture for a while.
