Are you insecure, do you constantly question him? The feeling I am getting from this is no to be honest but your side is one side. If your bf was writing this what would he say? He would have to come up with something a bit more convincing than his reported remarks here. So, assuming for the moment your version is the correct version, i'm tempted to conclude from this your bf actually has commitment issues which need addressing because he is projecting your presence 'everywhere' and is reacting against that. I would personally find feeling the presence of one I loved even when we were apart a pleasant experience but I suspect this sensation is not a genuine feeling (which can occur) but a projection of his own paranoia. How long have you been together?You cant change this because its his problem. I think you need to talk about this and get to the bottom of the issue which in my mind is your bf has issues which prompt a negative response to commitment. If they cant be resolved then you may have to rethink this relationship. Good luck!
