I have been dating this boy for nearly 8 months but I'm starting to fall out of love after quite a few incidents where he has been overly protective and possessive of me. I don't know what to do, he has a great side to him that I love but its just the bad side I can't handle. He is also very attached to me and I know if I broke it off with him he'll be devestated and probably go about it the wrong way like get back into partying and stuff. I care about him heaps but I don't think we're right for each other. Reply to this Question

I did sit down with him this morning and tried to have a serious conversation with him but he just didn't get it, so my only option now is to get out now rather than let it linger.
It's gonna be tough.

tell him how you feel. Let him know he is getting too close in your space, and you need some breathing room. If he really loves you then he will respect it.
I can tell you with certainty, the sudden switch to being possessive over you is because he does not want to lose you and fears that he might. He cares about you a great deal. Was there anything that happened that may cause him to feel as though you may leave him? If you can answer this question, than you can fix the problem tohrough conversation...
remember, great communication is the key to any successful relationship.

 The first mistake you are making is choosing his happiness over yours by worrying about him becoming a partier. If your not happy get out now before you are in too deep. You are so young and have a whole life ahead of you. Do not waste your time on one guy when you can meet plenty more. If you think you can make it work then sit down and tell him what bugs you and see if he can work it out. Otherwise get out.
