I thought things were going absolutely great until this point. His parents and I have never liked each other, but just a few days ago I told them what I thought of them and how they treat their son, which I think is terrible, selfish, and very unloving. My boyfriend has always complained about them to me and agreed with me about them, but it always makes me more upset than him about how they treat him. After our fight, it seemed he was taking their "side" and also said some mean things to me. He also told me he thought I was "too attached." I love him so much, and I had no idea this was coming because our relationship had been going so great. He told me I should get more friends, and I feel hurt. I want things to work but I feel like he is pushing me away and I don't know how to love him any less than I do. What should I do?

Lot's of people feel like this sometimes; suffocated. The stuff going on with you and his family is obviously getting to him, it must be hard being in the middle of something like that. I think he's just pushing everyone away because he thinks it will be easier for him if he distances himself from all this stress on his life.
I'm not saying it's down to you, it may be his family causing the problems but I think you need to do all you can resolve the problems. Give him some space, do your own thing and give him some time to think. Once you're not there, he'll realise how much he misses you and wants to be with you. It does seem you are very involved with this man, which is understandable if you're in love but you need to step back for a while. Good luck and be strong.
