It is lame I know, and my parents obviously do not trust me,even though they have no reason not to. My boyfriend has tons of friends and always has something to do...And always has plans. When I tell him I can't go out with him, he goes anyway! Would it be too much to ask fro him to stay at home with me once in awhile? Or am I being too controlling? Reply to this Question Share |

No, being controlling would be telling him he can't go out ever and that he should stay home with you all the time.
But asking him to stay home once in a while is perfectly reasonable, and it's inconsiderate of him to not think about what you might want to do occasionally.
If I were you I'd also work on softening up that curfew. You're an adult, so technically you should be able to make your own decisions. I'm 21 and still live at home with my parents as well, but I'm also my own person and they don't control me. You should probably also have a talk with your parents as well.

No, you're not. I would talk to him. The fact that he seems to have all those plans and doesn't spend time with you through his own choice is actually leading me to suspect he's not as into you as he should be. Have a talk with him.
