Is it normal for my bf to act so possessive?

He insists that he is not possessive of me and that I can go out with my friends. But his behavior says otherwise. For instance if I did go out with my friends, he would want picture proof that I was out with my friends and that I was where I said I was. Another thing is he gets worried and starts jumping to conclusions of me cheating if I fall asleep. He will be out with his friends, we will be texting and he will start sending me a bunch of messages insinuating that I am cheating and that it's not normal that I just stop talking to him and go to sleep. He has even woke me up in the middle of sleep.
Ive started to notice his possessive side and I am truly wondering if this is normal or if I'm overreacting?
Another thing that he did a few days ago that pissed me off was question the time stamp on a picture I had sent him of myself. It started a huge debacle with him not believing I had just taken the picture and it was insane honestly. I love him to death but my sleep is not peaceful anymore, I feel like I'm walking on egg shells and I feel like I'm just waiting for him to try to point out something or question me once again on stupid shit. Is this normal??

    Why do you put up with that bullshit?

    Welcome to an emotionally abusive relationship!!! A place where the guy is controlling, drives you crazy, doesn't trust you, and always jumps to conclusions! During this experience you'll feel nervous about what you say or do, ashamed to tell friends/family everything he does, wishing he revert back to the guy you first met, and so much more!!!!!

    But here's the the kicker, despite how much you love him and how nice he was in the beginning, he's not going to change. This is the real him.

    To feel peace again, you're going to have to break up with him and learn all you can about all forms of abuse (emotional, physical, verbal, sexual) and the red flags, so you don't find yourself falling for another guy like this.

    Also, you're not alone. Almost everyone in the world has had their encounter with an abusive partner, some more than once. All that matters is getting out that situation safely and never going back.

    This is not healthy for either of you. I wouldn't put up with this. You don't need to report to anyone!

    It's not good if a partner becomes possessive of their
    girlfriend or boyfriend..In your situation it's getting
    bad I'm a 48 year old male and would never be possessive
    over a girlfriend..I think he should give you breathing
    space and them type of guys end up doing things that
    can put them behind bars..I would talk to someone that
    can reason with him and tell him if he doesn't stop with
    his insecurities he is going to cause you to walk out of
    the relationship and the last thing guys should do is be
    a leach with a girl..I want a girl in my life but i want
    her to have friends, go out and have a good time and
    not worry about me being a leach with her or have to walk
    on egg shells yes it's not normal, what he is doing could
    turn to something criminal..You need to second think about
    this relationship and all the unhealthiness that's going
    on with you two, i think every girl doesn't need to feel
    smothered by a guy.
