I feel that i am restricted to doing only the things he feels is alright for me to do. Since i was little i'd always been a tomboy and just one of the guys. Many of my friend are guys, and i want to hang out with them. But it upsets him when i want to. He tells me he just wants to have a relaxing night, and then he goes to his friends parties. I'm so confused. I don't think thats fair. What do i do? Reply to this Question Share |

You're right, it's not fair. Ask him why he soesn't like you hanging out with your friends. My feeling is that either he doesn't trust you around other guys, or he doesn't trust other guys around you. Either way, he needs to know that you would never stray from him, and with time he may relax about it more.
Has he met your friends? That could also help, if he got to know them, then he'd see that that's all they are.....friends, not potential mates.
Still, address this issue with him, as it's not fair that you shouldn't get to hang out with your friends when he gets to 'do what he wants'
