Is it normal for me to want to.....

Break up with my boyfriend? We have been going out for nearly 2 years starting in high school. I'm at a college 2 hours away while he is at a community college at home. He wants to talk to me all the time but I'm really busy. He gets really jealous when I hang out with a couple guy friends. He is becoming really needy. I still love him, but he seems so needy now. If I break up with him he will get depressed. No idea what to do

    I wouldn't skip to that, try talking to him as hard as it might be trying to tell him to stop coming over as much and stuff, but it's gotta happen otherwise this isn't going anywhere. Or you could just be done with him..

    First year is lust.
    Second year is just about ok.
    Third year is "Go and die you f'ing bore!"

    This relationship may be just running out of steam but you can only be responsible for your own happiness. It doesn't sound as though you can make him happy so just live your life to the fullest and if he can't handle it ...

    Don't worry too much about him. he'll work it out for himself and hopefully grow up. I find that a lot of long distance relationships don't often work out anyway.

    Don't worry about him being happy or not. You have to be happy with just being you before you can be happy with someone else. If he is dependent on you, that's a bad sign. He'll get more and more controlling if it continues.

    He can't depend on you to be happy. You can only make yourself happy. He needs to see that before he can be with someone else.

  • Talk with him. Tell him that his attitude isn't making your relationship any easier. It's making it worse. I can understand why he gets jealous when you're with other guys because you're hours away from each other but he shouldn't be letting it get to him. Maybe ending your relationship is best. You need to talk with him and make a decision from there.
