Question Posted Tuesday September 30 2008, 9:40 pm
I have a boyfriend now that I've been dating for about a year and I've known him for even longer. My problem is that we fight alot..and when i say alot, i mean it.It can get pretty bad too.we fight over the most stupid things.i think alot of it is because of jealousy? maybe im not sure. anyways when we do fight i want to break up with him but then right when im about to, i get second thoughts and i dont know what it is stopping me. all my friends say i should get rid of him and i keep telling myself i will but i just never do. any suggestions??

We've actually broken up about four times in the past two years.
What you need to consider is, if you two broke up, would it actually be permanent? That old saying "If you love something set it free" is actually very true, and if you think about leaving him so much, you may HAVE to let him go. In the end you two will either be better apart and you'll move on, or you'll get back together if it's right and you'll then be able to judge what is okay to fight about and what isn't.
Also, trust your friends. What you tend to see in the men you'll date and what they see are often two different things. They aren't always right, but they'll see a different, unfiltered-by-love side of him that you may not know of.
Weigh your options and decide accordingly. [ pseudophun's advice column | Ask pseudophun A Question ]

You both have been in a relationship for a year, and ofcourse you guys are going to fight, maybe something is trynig to tell you that you should think about it first before breaking up with him again.
I wouldnt know if you should get rid of him but i do know that im sure your relationship is strong cause you both fight alot , which is Normal.
