Hanging out
I am a 16 year old female with a 17 year old boyfriend. I drive, he doesn't. We live about 30 minutes from each other.
My boyfriend gets upset with me because I don't want to hang out every opportunity we have. It's very difficult for us to hang out. I can drive BUT my parents won't allow me to drive him anywhere or go to his house.
When he comes over to my house, my parents usually let him stay no later than 9:00 and my parents drive him home. I live about 45 minutes away from the movie theater (this is really the only teenage hangout spot around here). It really wears me out to go to the movies even for a few hours. I'm really one who doesn't like to hang out with friends. I'm tend to be a homebody.
We got into this big argument over how I never WANT to do anything. I will hang out with him even though I don't really want to because I get worn out easily. We see each other every day at school.
So, any ideas on what to tell him?

COme to a compromise, he needs to take in the fact that you guys see each other everyday, and realize that you need some "me" time. Then again, see his point, school is school....hanging out as an "extracurricular" is more appealing to guys. Have the talk. It should help. And be blunt and honest. make sure he is too.
Hope i helped

seeing eachother at school is 5 days
plus the weekend is 2 days
which equals 7 days right?
well tell your boyfriend that you see him enough!tell him to get a licence and get a life! b/c if he expects you to hang out with him every single waking moment, then hes plain crazy! okay? :]
hope i helped
good luck

you can say:
*hun, listen, i want to spend time with you but its sooo hard because of my homework and my strict parents*
*don't say that! you know i would spend every waking moment with you but its just that, i'm SO tired. when i get home, i just wanna sleep in my bed for a little, i'll promise we can spend more time together*

In all honesty you need to tell him to find someone
who likes going out and doing the things he likes to do.
Most teens are very social. They like hanging out with friends. If you aren't then your relationship will not last long. Not that there is anything wrong with being a homebody, it just won't get you much in the way of a boyfriend. :)
