me and my boyfriend fight a lot lately, its over small stuff and usaly if I give in and let it go and be nice it all works out. but today I can't seem to do that he is really getting under my skin about what he did. he doesn't cheat or anything like that but he spends all his time with his friends and I don't have friends any more. ever since we dated he wanted me to ditch them, all we did was party and have fun he wouldn't go with us so I was stupid and in love so I ditched them.

and next weekend his best friends bachelor party is a weekend away with the guys at a cabin I think he shouldn't go can I tell him no?

Now, in your case . . . He needs to just grow up and be a man. You are every bit a person as he is. In my relationship, I have some of my friends and so does she. I will never tell her she cannot go with her friends. But the same is expected in reverse. Best relationships are 50/50 with understanding on both sides.
Tell him to drop his pacifer and show you some respect.

You should tell him what he did to you and then reason it out. From my perspective, it doesn't seem fair that he wants you to ditch your friends for him when he wouldn't do the same for you. You have the right to tell him not to go. If this goes into an argument, tell him what is fair and rightful. If he doesn't comply, then get try to get back with your old friends again. If you old friends don't want to be with you again, you can always make new ones. There are so many options in this world. You don't have to let 1 little thing to bother you too much. So be happy! =)

The main problem as I see it is that you and him are mis-matched. You two want different things. You two have different priorities. It's not about right and wrong, it's just about being different.

You can say that you'd prefer that he'd rather not attend the bachelor party. But he has the right to make his own decisions. If you disagree, you've got that right ... but you *don't* have the right to try and control him.

You shouldn't have ditched your friends I think--that seems rather selfish and insecure of him. No partner should put such limits on the other's personal freedom. I wish I could give more advice, but I think your whole relationship is compromised unless you both agree to change, resolve your differences and constant fighting, and be less controlling towards each other.

you can tell him whatever is on your mind. if he truly cares about you he'll respect your opinions. you shouldnt have to give up your way of life to be with him, you two should be able to find middle grounds. and no guy is worth all of your friends, when things aren't going well between you and your bf, its your friends that are there to cheer you up. I would never trade all my friends for a girlfriend

i read your response to rdabby's post, and you are just full of excuses! getting new friends is a great idea, and getting a job, I have met all my best friends at jobs. You babysit his son mon-fri? so what, you could get a job at night, waitressing has very flexible schedules, and there's so many employees you will meet a lot of great new friends. you could also tell him that he needs to hire a babysitter since you are going to be at work. and the weekends are for you and him? well, apparently he's comfortable with the weekends being for him and his friends, so you shouldn't save that block of time for him if he's not saving it for you.
I really think you should stop making excuses and go out and get a job, you'll make friends, you'll be busy, and you'll feel better about yourself. your boyfriend will want to spend more time with you if you aren't ALWAYS available. he needs to be able to miss once in awhile.

Question Asker It would be easyer but she stays the night and he won't watch her so if we could get a baby sitter 24/7 then it would work but right now we can't and I can't leave her with no one. I could get a job but every time I don't have a babysitter for her then I would have to miss work so I could try but I can't afford him missing work. idk - 14 days ago

well first of all, its never too late to get new friends or to try to get attached with your old ones...
tell them that you busy or whatever and if not, try to get new friends, I know it takes a while but its easy...are you friendly? out going? then get new ones..
You should never give up your friends for anyone I know I know its too late to say that but let me tell you why, Boyfriends come and go, Friends are always gunna be there for you no matter how bitchy you are or how dramatic you can be!

Second thing You re not his Mom so you shouldnt order ask him not to go , he is a grown up and he has to be there for his friend. I say let him go to the Bach. party because he will have fun, be with the guys , believe it or not, Guys do need thier Guys friends whether he has a gf/ married or single!

If you re not quite sure about what's gunna happen at the party, you should let him know what's his limits, like for example if they re getting a stripper, tell him what you mind and what you dont! don't obsess about it because its just a party for his friend.

You should give him SPACE, yes space is very important to guys...it p*sses off gurls I know that but he can't be with you all the time, he needs time off , what you really need to do is to spice up your relationship... looks like it getting colder than usual... do something about it.. plan a trip or something.. surprise him with something fun and sexy.. go out clubbing! ..it shouldnt be just Serious and boring it has to be fun otherwise he will look for fun else where!...

Another thing, why don't you get yourself occupied with something new like a hobby or gym or something? it may take the stress out ( the inner anger )and it will make your relationship with him a lot better perhaps find something you re both into.. and do it like mmm Pool?
mountain climbing... something that you do together.. or you could do it alone while he is busy...plus you will be in a great shape and you will get rid of the boredom!

Hope that helps...
