Every weekend all our friends do something fun like go to the movies or bowling. And they always invite me and my boyfriend... but my boyfriend never wants to go. He only wants to sit home and watch movies and snuggle. Which is okay sometimes... i mean, i'm glad he wants to be with me... but we never do anything fun. And the weird thing is, it's not like he's anti-social... at school he's super popular and a big show off and loves to be the center of attention. But whenever we're together with a bunch of people, he ends up pouting and getting mad that I'm talking to other people. It's like he's jealous if I get any attention, or if I'm giving anyone else attention. So all we do is sit home while everyone else has fun, and they think we're like the most boring couple on earth. Ugghhh... what can I do? And why is he like that?

loveyou123 answered Sunday September 2 2007, 3:58 pm: tell him that you want to go out once in a while. he should understand, and just tell him that you only want him, and every other guy is a friend to you. if he gets too jealous, stop wasting your time. you should be with someone who trusts you to be in a group. besides, what would you do...he's WITH you!

holahayley56 answered Sunday September 2 2007, 3:47 pm: He probably doesn't like sharing you. I had a boyfriend like that. It was really annoying. And then when you do drag him somewhere if no ones talking to him for like a mili second, they freak out. Atleast thats how my boyfriend was. It'd get really annoying. and just like you said your boyfriend pouts, mine would too. if i wasnt like hanging all over him. when you guys go out, is it your friends your hanging out? or his? if its yours, he may be kinda shy? i mean even though you say hes not shy or whatever, sometimes if people dont have there friends surronded by them and there with other people they dont really know, they cant be there natural self.
what i did... is i asked my boyfriend. i'd be like why dont you ever wanna go out. like just straigh out say it. and see what he says. and say it in person. and dont sound mean about it, just concerned.
hollister_lover09 answered Sunday September 2 2007, 3:45 pm: My boyfriend was the same way. Popular, Football captain, and all he wanted to do was sit at home. We got into a fight about it tho, so try to not get into a fight, but tell him you wanna go out as a couple. And Im sure he will. Tell him you would really want to do couple things.
