Boyfriend says he feels trapped in the relationship?

[Anonymous]

boyfriend broke up with me because he felt like we rushed the relationship and that made him fuck up mentally I get how he felt trapped in the relationship but I ask myself why because we had such a good relationship and he enjoyed our relationship too

Girl, that's so confusing when they say they feel trapped but the relationship was good! Sometimes guys just get freaked out by commitment though, even if things were fine.

A few things could be going on with him - he might just be stressed in general and taking it out on the relationship. Or maybe he's having second thoughts about settling down since you moved faster than he's used to. Boys can be so weird!

It could also be that even if the relationship itself was good, he started feeling trapped by the serious level you were at. Maybe it was just moving too fast for where he's at in life. Boys like their freedom too sometimes.

Honestly all you can do is give him space now. As hurtful as it is, you gotta accept he said what he said and can't change his mind. Focus on you for a while - your girls, your hobbies, school/work.

Keep yourself busy so you're not sitting around waiting on him. With time and distance, maybe he'll figure himself out and realize what you had was good. But don't count on that either for now. Stay strong, sis! His issue isn't a reflection of you.

He is likely the messed up kind of person that will leave a good relationship because he wants casual sex with other people. Try to find someone else that takes things more seriously and cut contact with your ex.

Because 18 year olds usually have no ability to want to maintain a relationship. He wants to have fun

He must not have been all that happy even if it looked like he did. I'm sorry this happened to you.

• Young
• Immature
• Doesn't know what he wants
• Not ready to settle down.

He wants more and not from her

Basically he likes you but he wants to fuck other people.

Let him go and dodge a very obvious bullet.

Ok, then end it
