Ive been with my boyfriend for about 6 months now, I know it doesn't seem that long, but I really think he's the one. He's very overprotective at times though and very hypocritical, as in he can do something but I shouldn't be able to..

For example: He can go out for 6 hours to play "video games" with his friends, but when I mention going out then he sounds extremely bummed so I feel guilty and end up not going.


Fun right? But I love him soooo much, I feel like he's doing this just because he cares so much. But my real question is that when things get even more serious, and when I graduate will all of this hold me back and keep me from exceeding in life?

Sounds like he's being a bit selfish. You're young, I know you think he's the one (and he might be) but you will probably find once you get to college that you want to date some more people before you settle down for good. Remember, you might be with this guy for the next 50 years...

Absolutely it will. Living for another person will hold you back. Save that for when you have your own kids. Your guy sounds boring, dig.

You shouldn't have to sacrifice your fun if he doesn't either. You are young you need to explore and have fun, and if he's going to hold you back maybe he is wasting your time. best of luck.

I was once in a similar situation with a guy I dated when I was 20. I'd have opportunities to go out with friends and he'd react in what I now realize was a very passive-aggressive manner. He'd always say it was fine for me to go out, but I'd feel guilty or whatever and decide that I'd hang out with him instead... not that I thought I minded then.

Eventually we decided to take a break. I went out with some friends, including a guy friend I hadn't seen in a while. First thing he said to me was, "did you break up with your boyfriend?" I was so shocked by his intuitive question and asked why he said that. "I don't know. You just seem... different... so much happier than before."

It was that moment that I realized I missed going out with our friends and I hated not being social. Ultimately spending time away from him helped me realize we weren't right for each other for other reasons, too.

The going out to play video game thing just may be true because my bf does the same thing. I'm actually there watching him play Madden for freakin 4-7 hours it's so stupid! Pisses me off and yea he sounds kinda greedy maybe jealous. He doesn't really want you to go out probably thinks you'll flirt or eye some other dudes. it's normal though. Best of luck to the both of you ^_^

Does it ever annoy you that you're single?
random-ren asked 3 days ago

Yes, most of the time! I really wish I had a boyfriend/girlfriend!

A little, because I feel left out.

Not really...

Nope! I have too much fun being single!

What's there to be annoyed about?

Describe your ideal first date; Where do you go? What do you wear? How does the date end?
An ideal first date would be pretty casual and fun, just getting to know each other. Something simple like going to the movies and dinner, or going to a concert, or maybe just even hanging out somewhere kind of romantic. I'd wear something like jeans and a cute top--nice but not fancy. It'd end with a nice walk back home, and maybe a goodnight kiss if things go well :)

Afterwards..what will your date know about you?
He'd know what I'm like, my personality, how I normally act. He'd also probably know about what I'm interested in, what I want to do in the future, and maybe a bit of background stuff. Basically just what it would be like to be with me and get to know what it's like being around me.

Would you date me?
