You are being smothered alive................I feel he's taking advantage of you and if you allow it to continue, it will. You need space, you need breathing room. HE also needs to get his own license and a JOB......You need to talk to him and tell him that you can't live like this anymore, changes are at hand or you both need to go your own separate way...........He's probably gonna raise hell, but he's gotten use to you Mothering him and hauling him around and buying him stuff......Sounds like he needs to get a life with some other friends as well.............. Just my opinion!

How old are ya, 16? You don't need to stick with this guy. Move on, find someone else, or just be single for a while. It can be fun!

I would suggest talking to your school psychologist or counselor, they can help you with your unhappiness and let you know if you need to see another doctor about it.

Same Issue
Posted: 10-24-07 13:03pm

I had the same issue. I hate being smothered and my boyfriend wanted to spend time with me 24/7.. that's just what people do nowadays. He was comparing our relationship - how often we saw each other - to other people.
I am busy all the time with work and extracurricular stuff and almost every chance I got I would spend with him. I told him that sometimes I just want to be alone - it's not that I don't want to see him, it's just I need some "me" time!
He still gets angry every once in a while cause we're not together ALL the time, but he understands my needs.
If your boyfriend doesn't understand what you need / want he isn't worth staying with at all!
