Angry boyfriend...

64% Normal
14 Comments

First off, spare me your opinion on online relationships, I'm not interested in it. I get that a lot of people don't think highly of them.

Anyways...I'm involved with a guy in a long distance/online relationship. Recently, I've been having a lot of family trouble at home. I just couldn't take it anymore, after a huge blowup, I decided to leave for awhile and move in with my friend who lives about 40 minutes away. Well, this friend is a guy. I told my boyfriend, and he basically flipped out. I tried to tell him he was merely a friend, but he wouldn't listen. Now he won't talk to me and has just shut down entirely. Is my boyfriend's reaction normal? Is it really that bad if I move in with another guy?

    I think he's jealous and overreacting. I'm a firm believer that men and women can cohabitate platonically. He seems to have trust issues or something. That is no good, especially if it's unjustified, it will only drive you away.

      Meh. I don't think his distrust is an issue in this case. I think it's smart.

    Of course its bad.
    I'd be shocked if my bf did that.
    It's ultra mega normal to be jealous, come on, you're LIVING with another guy. How would you feel if your bf was living with a hot girl?

    This is obvious i dont know why you're asking this. Your boyfriend probably feels so hurt he cant even face you

    I'm going though this, it's a horrible feeling. Please move out, your hurting him.

      I agree. My BF told me he waned an open ended relationship because of our long distance... It still hurts.

    Okay, let's roleplay this one out. I'll portray the role of your boyfriend and you play as yourself.

    "What the fuck, Jennifer?! As if it isnt enough stress to be in a long distance relationship, you go and move in with another guy?? This makes me feel so powerless and betrayed"

    Your turn

        Why must I grow a pair? :/
        You are obviously on the hunt for the cock. I'm not gay, so go try somewhere else

        You tell him!
        Stop having emotions, rage! Caring about what your girlyfriends do is dumb! They're JUST HOLES for your WINKY.

    You two obviously have very different values. You were unwilling to consider his feeling before moving in with another guy. And he is apparently not viewing you as his type. So, the split up seems to be a good thing. But ask yourself honestly - would you really be ok if your boyfriend moved in with another single woman?

    It was too much fear for you to put him through all at once without even speaking to him about it. Of course he shut down. You dropped a bomb on him.
    I mean, does he even know this guy? How long have you been dating? And why do people think that just because your dating someone it means you instantly have to trust them? Trust should be earned, not given freely. Love is given freely- trust is a separate package. Randomly moving in with a guy that I bet he doesn't know and not talking about it first certainly didn't help gain his trust.
    The fact that his feelings weren't even a thought to consider just verifies why he shouldn't trust you.

    I know what he's feeling. Shit just got too stinky for him to bear. His reaction is understandable.
