Why does my ex act like he owns me? Guys explain!

[Anonymous]

He wants me to stay by his side but he doesn't want to stay by mine.At least that's how I see it he is a real sweetheart.it's just I don't trust him to the fullest.He gets mad when I tell him I talk to another guy he says naw you better not be.He ain't nothing like me.But I never bitch when he is with another girl..Im confused why does he do this?

Your ex might not be secure with himself yet to trust you completely. He could be afraid that you might leave him for someone else that you think could be better than him. I think that he might be a little selfish because you're something that he values very much and doesn't want another man to have you. I think that he might view you more as a prize than as a romantic companion. I hope my advice can help you out somehow and best of luck with your romantic endeavors!
