I have been with my man for a year and 2 months now. I am 21, he is 22. I can see myself marrying this man and having his children. Most of the time things are good. He hangs out with his friends and I see mine, we all hang out together and get along well. My problem lies with his friends and their relationships. When his friends are having problems in their relationships and become single, my man gets the "single itch". He wants to be single and go out and party with them but when they are all coupled up he talks about how he is so happy, I am his baby and that we are together. I already talked to him about how I noticed his friends relationship status influencing ours, we actually broke up once for 3 days when all of his friends were single. So my question is this, do I just need to back off, give him space and let him talk to his guy friends when they are single or do I need to move on and get a new guy? Or do any of you have other suggestions?

I agree with austin and rosynante... I would say breaking off or limiting him to talk to his buddies are out of question.. Think about what you would feel, if you wanted to hang out and support with your recently singled girl friends but he wouldnt want you to... Wouldn't feel right would it? Let him hang out with his friends... Not all guys go out with their buddies and flirt or sleep with the first girl they see anyway... Definitely keep him in check though...

That's not a reason to break it off with a guy. A guy wanting to go out, especially when his buddies are single is quite normal. Let him go out, tell him to have fun without cheating on you. Get drunk, pee outside, flirt with some chicks etc...He will like you more for that however don't let him think you don't care at all, then you loose him for good. A thin line.

Maybe he is being a bit too influenced by his friends . After all, he's your guy not theirs . But I don't think you should break off from him . He needs his freedom still, like any other guy . Let him go out without thinking about how his friends influence him . If its that much of a problem then sit him down and tell him how you feel . That's gonna be the best way to clear the air .

Just back off and give him some space and let him talk to his friends when they are single.

Well you should give him space when it comes to friends but if he really loved you he wouldn't want to break up with you just cause his friends are single. Tell him how that feels when he does that if he does it again kick his ass out!

I wouldn't move on for that reason alone. All guys are going to have their flaws and it sounds like you're crazy about him otherwise, even after a year and change. He needs to grow up a little, be steadily himself regardless of what his friends are doing. However, when his guy friends are out partying in the single scene, I'm sure he hears all about how great it is constantly. So it's natural for him to remember the good things about being single. The grass is always greener :) Give him time...Guys don't mature as fast and I've never met a 22 year old who was completely ready for commitment. If he's out with his friends, I'd suggest that you go out with yours and have a Girls Night Out, Sex In The City (minus the sex with a different guy) night!
