So me and my boyfriend have been going out for a year now. When we first started dating he would say how he didnt deserve me and all this stuff. And here lately we have been getting in fights like everyday. He brings stuff up from the past about me when I hurt him when we werent even dating. He is 16 and I am almost 18 and im going to college in a couple months. I am starting to feel like he doesnt want to be around me because he never ask me to hang out then he gets mad when i tell him how i feel but thel he tells me not to keep things bottled up inside. When we hang out we dont really fight as much but I just dont know what to do. Everyone I have told my stories to say he is really insecure about himself. Everytime a guy talks to me he freaks and ask me why im talking to him so now if a guy even says hi to me i get worried beacause i dont mant my boyfriend getting mad.

NotJustAnotherPrettyFace answered Saturday July 2 2011, 10:48 pm: This was just like my first serious high school relationship. It goes in phases and by the time it's over you guys have about a year and half together and probably only 6 months of genuine love feelings. The truth is he's simply a stepping stone in your life. Take this relationship as a learning experience. Now you know exactly what it is you want and don't want in your next relationship which honestly shouldn't be for a while because when your in college you wanna be having fun and not be tied down. Your boyfriend isnt as mature as you and he won't be for at least another 4 years he's 16 and still like a child. So truth be told it's time to move on.

lightoftruth923 answered Friday June 24 2011, 8:36 pm: This just might not be worth it. I mean, why would you want to spend time with someone who always fights with you?
Also, your past is your past. It needs to stay that way. You can't go back and change it so he needs to get over that.
You're going to college and I don't know if you're still gonna be around him but if not then it's going to be harder.
He's just being immature and not taking what you say seriously.
You should be with a guy who is thankful to have you and loves being with you and hanging out with you. Not someone who is always fighting or getting jealous of other guys who say hi to you.
He might be insecure, even if he is, it doesn't give him an excuse to act like this, you know?
If you want to work things out with him then talk to him. If that doesn't go through then you need to break it off and give him some time to grow up. You'll be fine through this. Good luck! [ lightoftruth923's advice column | Ask lightoftruth923 A Question ]
xXVioletRibbonXx answered Friday June 24 2011, 8:14 pm: Okay, heres the thing. A girl at 16, is about 2 years more mature than a boy at 16. If your 18, you have 4 years of maturity on him. Hes going to act childish. Hes going to get mad over stupid things. Just tell him point blank 'your being immature about this, and if things keep going the way they are, maby we shouldn't be together. Because it sure seems like you don't want me around'
Also, i wouldn't really be with him if hes that much younger. If you did possibly have sex or anything, you would go to jail. He is a minor. Your not. [ xXVioletRibbonXx's advice column | Ask xXVioletRibbonXx A Question ]
