writes: Should I be worried that my boyfriend seems really possessive lately? Does it mean he's done something he knew he shouldn't have? When we first started dating (we have a long distance relationship while he goes to school) he seemed jealous but not over the top. He repeatedly denied being jealous until his birthday party. He got completely drunk and just started spilling everything to me. He said it bothered him to see me talking or hanging out with other guys. That he didn't like other guys putting their hands on me even if it was a hug. We've never had problems with cheating on either ends during the course of our relationship. That night he also looked me in the eyes and said he was never going to let me go. I thought it was abit weird that he said something like that but I just chalked it up to him being drunk. The day after his bday party he got back to denying that he was jealous until I just said it was something he already told me. A couple months go by and everything was fine then after about a year into our relationship our problems began. He got really passive and let his friends walk all over the both of us. I got sick of it and threatened to leave. Several times. Each time was more serious than the last. The last fight we had he came up to me and said that I was his and will always be his. Now everytime I hang we hang out he always says to me, "you're mine." Is this a problem or is it just because he's insecure that im going to leave?

A lot of men are possessive and your boyfriend sounds like one of them. This isnt' neccessarily a deal-breaker for everyone - you have to assess your own feelings about this and make a decision.
