Is it normal: my girlfriend decides when i go to sleep?

Even if I'm tired and repeatedly ask to go to sleep my girlfriend doesn't let me. Sometimes she'll put sad faces to make me feel bad about going to sleep while she's up or other times she'll talk about something like sex to keep me up. I would just turn my phone off and fall asleep but then she'll break up with me. I really do love my girlfriend (we've been together over two years) i just hate that she does this.

  • Get rid of her, she's no good. She controls when you sleep and when you don't? Have you no shame?

    Have some pride and self respect.

      I agree with you on this one. I went out with a guy who would cry and yell if I tried to end a phone conversation to sleep, even if I'd taken sleeping medication and staying awake was difficult and painful. It was awful. Threatening to break up with somebody if they sleep is abusive.

      • What a needy person. I agree, it is abusive, and I hope you have left the person that is doing/done that to you.

    She sounds like the "overly attached girlfriend" lol

    But seriously, have you told her to stop that?

    Really bro, if you want to go to sleep, go to sleep. If she can't handle the fact that you're human and you get sleepy, she's not worth the effort.

    Girls controlling dudes piss me off.
    And vica-versa, ofcourse.

    Your girlfriend sounds needy. It is normal that they do not want you to go asleep. However if they really make you feel that if not they will break up with you that is not normal. However if its just an idea you cooked up in your head you have some security issues.

    She'll break up with you over that? I think you should break up with her for saying that.

    controlling is not a good trait. That's stupid she's not your mother!

    What bothers me about this post is not the behaviour, it's the threat that she'll just break up with you if you don't comply. Ditch her, you can't live like that.

  • wake her in the middle of the night and tell her you are awake, see how she likes it

    I think she just enjoys talking to you SO MUCH that she wants you to stay talking as long as possible. Get into a routine where you just say you're tired, go to sleep at a certain time and she'll understand.

      I agree to this comment, it seems simple but you should not always consider the behavior of your GF (even if it's a bit strange, like in this case) as negative. She probably just wants to spend time with you. No reason to break up with her, just clarify your feelings and it will be fine.

    She'll dump you if you turn your phone off to go to sleep? BIG problem there.

    Let me guess --- she decides when or it you see any of your friends ( that is if she hasn't already made you stop seeing the ones who didn't already walk out of your life after seeing you become such a doormat ) she always decides where and when your going out and maybe even what you'll wear.

    Wtf, no that not normal. She controlling your life and you let her get away with it. Grow a pair and dump her. Then work on getting your sleep schedule back on track.

    She sounds bloody controlling, I wouldn't still be there if I were you. :/ Clearly she cares more about herself than she does you, if she doesn't care that you're tired as long as she has someone to talk to

    Yeah I dont think this is normal and you should be brave enough to say "I'm so tired, I love you and i look forward to talking to you tomorrow <3"
