My boyfriend doesn't want me to go to college?!

[Ra3Chick]

So I've been applying to colleges all year now and got accepted to a bunch of great ones with great scholarships for the major I want (which is speech pathology) this major is hard to find colleges for btw...so when my boyfriend sees I'm getting accepted everywhere, instead of being happy for me he panics and says he's gonna breakup with me if I even move 1 hour away:( but the problem is no colleges near me have my major:( What do I do? Is that normal for him to tell me that?

I think your Boyfriend is selfish+immature boy.

Why does he try to control your life?

It's your life and you need to move on unless you REALLY want to stay with him REST OF YOUR LIFE

I think he doesn't want to break up with you because he clearly knows that the relationship

is not gonna last. Maybe he is not confident enough to get other girls.

I think your Boyfriend needs to get a life and not try to control someone's life.

If he truly were in love with you and concerned about you, then he would have pleaded you

to go to university for better life.

You need to distinguish between love and child play.

BTW if you don't know what true love is, it's more about sacrifice not childish behavior that

your Boyfriend clearly shows.

What do you do? I think you need to tell him that this is very important to you.
You need to tell him that it is for your own future even tho he loves you and you love him equally back. (I assume)
Unless you have a change of heart.. and decide to stay. Otherwise i think that he knows he's going to lose you. Which is painful.

No, get an amazing education at the best school and he one that gives you the most financial aid. Think about this: if you two break up, and you had decided to go to a college closest to you, would you regret it? His response is immature, and most of all extremely selfish. Anyways congratulations on your acceptances!!

No that's not normal. If he is that controlling, then you probably would be better off if he dumped you. Actually, you should probably dump him first. He should be happy for your success and encourage you to follow your dreams, not try to make you quit them.

GO TO COLLEGE!. your education is most valuable thing you can have. Boys come and go. Besides if he needs to learn to be a supportive bf.

NO! GO TO COLLEGE! My brother did that and it was the biggest mistake of his life to not go to college. You don't know me btu trust me. Go. Your future life doesn't need someone who wants to bring you down. No that is not normal. NO.

Boyfriends come and go. If he isn't' happy for you for this VERY rare opportunity do you think he's worth it? Please, make the right choice. Plus, there's lots of cute guys at college. Seriously, it's not normal and he should be happy for you and want what's best for you, instead, he's being greedy. Don't listen to him.

He's an idiot. Dump him STAT and go on with your life, go to a great college, meet great guys who respect a smart girl, and have a great life without this LOSER!

[CuriousEddie]

You did get a new boyfriend right? I mean, even if he relented and "let" you go to college, this reaction shows that he is selfish and immature.

[zagor]

Sounds like he is insecure, and is being pretty selfish. If he really cared for you he would want what is best for achieving your goals. If he's trying to manipulate you now, imagine what it would be like if you were married.

[c7777]

Well obviously your not going to stay with him if your going off somewhere so its a normal reaction

[bassplayerMON]

break up with him he's going to ruin your life
