I'm in the relationship with this guy and it's been 9 months. We've gone through so many things and I'm thinking you might understand me. We aren't in a long distance relationship but we've had a lot of problems. He's ditched his friends for me because they don't like me and I've done the same. But I'm one to really want to spend time with my friends. I spend every waking moment with him. Before i leave for school, before school, between every period, after school,going home, at home, before i sleep. Then 8-10 hours with each other during the weekends. He doesn't get that I want to spend time with my friends and I've tried to explain it to him. I love him very much and we had a really good thing going on. I can't stand breaking up with him, but I feel like that's what's right for us right now. What should I do? Am I wrong?
It’s not necessarily a bad thing to want to spend a lot of time together, but it’s important to recognize that life is about more than just the relationship. Everyone needs space sometimes, and your boyfriend should respect that. I don’t think it’s right if he’s preventing you from hanging out with your friends. Everyone is entitled to have time to pursue their own individual interests. If you can accept that for him, there shouldn’t be a problem. From what you’ve told me, I feel that the issue isn’t really about hanging out with friends or not, but rather respecting time apart. I hope that this was helpful & that you two can work out this situation.
