Thinking you OWN someone is bound to drive you insane. I'm not surprised he won't let you see texts he sends to women friends.
If I were him, I wouldn't run away from you - I'd DRIVE - its faster. You know, might persuade him to do just that, if you continue with this line of thought.
That's my advice.

Okay, read your last sentence. "...but I realize
it's him that's making me think like this." First of all , he is not "making" you do anything. You are choosing to let this bother you. Second of all, if I had guess, then I would say that your intuition is correct. No matter what his excuse is, if he is hiding things from you, then it is likely that he has something to hide. I think you know the answer. Third, you are 17 and have been with someone for almost 2 years. Please take some time to have fun. You are not "fantastic" together if he is hiding things from you and lying to you. Good Luck!
