Search Results: why girlfriend feels controlled

First up, me and my boyfriend been together for nearly 1 and a half years
We usually see each other once or twice a week and calls me everyday
But recently we have been seeing each other nearly everyday
he's mostly the one initiating the calls everyday and asking me to go out nearly everyday this week and he's still very affectionate - still hugs and kiss me whenever we are together and he would put his arm around me or hold my hand in public
But when he called me last night, we had this conversation that made think he's unhappy being with me:
Him - im gonna be honest.. you're quite controlling. Even my mum noticed.
Me - how?
Him - you are kinda controlling. Like today i told u that i wanna get tipsy at work and u keep asking why and saying "no dont do that".. i can do whatever i feel like. Its for fun. Any guy would run away if they think their girlfriend is trying to control us
Me - im not trying to control u
Him - it feels like it. And you always take things seriously. Joke around more. Its not fun you know?
Me - so u think im boring?
Him - well yeah sometimes. You dont talk much. You dont joke around. You take evrything srsly. And that gets boring
Me - so you're not happy with me?
Him - i didn't say that. Im happy with u. you're the best partner I've ever had and thats the truth. Its just that i needed to tell u all this. I dont like being controlled and i want u to talk more. Sometimes i feel like im talking to a brick wall. You only talk if i talk to you. You only respond. Its frustrating sometimes.
Me - ok. Sounds like ur not happy with me. Just leave if u dont wanna be with me
Him - no im not saying that. you're taking it the wrong way. I am happy with u. If i wasn't, i wouldn't be with you. Simple. If i dont want something, i dont want it. I would leave. If i didn't care, i wouldn't call back when you're pissed off. I wanna be with u but i just wish you would talk more. You have good qualities like you're loyal, you're a good girl, you're good listener and everything else you're good.
