Honeysuckles respond well to hard pruning. It may be that you have been too kind to it, as it should have flowered by now. I think I would leave it until next spring and cut it hard back - then see if that has any effect on its flowering. One of my very old ones got the hard pruning method and it has re-juvenated it!
