Relationship with boyfriend is getting bad. Hey guys, I'm Laura, and I'm 17. My boyfriend is 20. We have been together for over a year now, and we have been fighting non-stop lately. We constantly are fighting over stupid stuff, nothing serious or worth fighting over at all. I try to calm him down, but he doesn't drop things until I start balling my eyes out crying, then he apologizes because he feels bad and realizes that I haven't even done anything. I just need help of how to handle situations when we're fighting, because he refuses to let me walk away, no matter what. I want ideas and things I can do to make our relationship happier. Cute things to do for him, and things that we can do together that aren't expensive! Thank you!

the first year in a relationship is tough. but you both have to be strong. dont let stupid stuff ruin the love that you both have for each other. talk about it, not yell,scream or cry. always tolerate respect and always practice compromise. good luck ]
Often, being together around a year can be a hard time for couples. Both of you have to agree to put some major effort in. If he's picking a fight about something that doesn't matter, you need to say "Let's stop, this isn't worth fighting about." Tell him how you feel before you're crying. And sometimes, in the middle of a fight, what you really need is a breather- just for a few minutes until you're both calmed down and no one's mad, that can help a lot.
If there's something specific that keeps causing problems, then you need to work to make it not a problem anymore, of course. Try to find a pattern.
Communication, trust, and honesty are the keys to a great relationship, so you guys need to have a talk about why you're fighting and what you're both willing to do to make it stop.
Sometimes at this point you might be stuck in a rut, doing the same old things, so try doing things you guys haven't done before when you hang out.
Best of luck. ]
look about the fighting just ask him if he would want to breeak up over it (whatever the subject may be) and trust me he should just stop if he doesnt and you do break up (which prolly wont happen) give him a couple days and call him. plus thats wat couples do fight ]
