My friends have been going to parties and stuff and I just feel like I shouldn't be involved with that too much becuase I'm not single like them. Although, I so want to go out with them and stuff. But, I also work 4-5 days a week so on my days off I always kind of have to chose between my friends and boyfriend and I always feel bad about it. And I like flirting with guys and everything thats just my personality. But I just can't see myself breaking up with my boyfriend because I know I will miss him and my family really likes him and everything. I haven't talked with him about this because I know it will be taken the wrong way like I want to break up but thats not it.. I guess the real problem is I want the best of both lifestyles, single and having a boyfriend. I know I'm young and it is very unlikely that we will stick together forever but for now, I just don't know what to do.. stay with him or go have fun?

 Why don't you bring your boyfriend along with you when you go out with friends? Or devote some more time to your friends? You aren't required to spend every minute of free time with your boyfriend. You're still very young. Have fun. If you don't, you'll resent him for it.

 Trust me. Go have fun. 17 yr old guy telling you this.
I was with my ex 7 months, my parents really liked her, but i just wished i could be single, or atleast experience someone new, even though my girlfriend never did anything wrong and was amazing. I couldnt find it in me to break up with her, so i told her we would just take a break and maybe get back together later on. 2 weeks later, i find out its just hurting her worse than if i would have just broke it off because she's still clinging to hope that we'll get back together, and im already looking at new potential relationships.
Go have fun

 You should be able to have it all. Have him along when you go out with friends. If that doesn't work, choose your friends. You're way too young to be tied down. You have the whole rest of your life for that.

You can still have him just because your in a relationship doesnt mean you cant have fun and you can have fun with your bf because its more romantic and more fun I think just ask him and go somewhere or you can bring him with your friends to have in parties??? Just ask him he'll understand and you guys can adjust.
