writes: I am having a lot of problems at the moment. My boyfriend of 2 years is being told what to do all the time by his parents. He rarely stands up against them. Whenever we have time together, he is asked to come home early and not allowed out much. They are inflexible and demand he spends more and more time with them. I feel like he is treated not like an adult, but like a kid again. He knows if he stands up to them, there will be huge fighting. But these rules and regulations mean I hardly spend time with him. Its undermining and jeopardizing our relationship. I resent them for treating him and our relationship like this, and I dont want this to carry on. He cant have a calm conversation with them, as they will hit the roof if he goes against their wishes. I love him, but am no longer happy if he doesnt stand his ground more and stand up for himself.Also, I used to get on well with the family, but am no longer invited round, even for his brithday I was excluded from the celebrations. I was very upset about this.He and I are both in our early twenties.How can we make this work? Reply to this Question

 ok hun i am here in the same situation as your bf and trust me you cant do a lot. if you where him you would understand it more. what i can tell you is if you love him try to work this through. I am honestly on the edge and im about to move out probably next year because i cant stand living with them. i am ashamed when all my friends go out have great time and i have to be home ealry sometimes i be likcy if i stay out till 12. they treat me like im 12 or something and i try to talk to them and it just gets more crazier. what i can say try to talk to him and see if he is planing to move out. i have 2 more yr of collage and im gone if not sooner. I love them but they are too much and my poor bf, i am happy he is still with me and trust me your bf is happy you are still with him because he needs you girl and try no to give up on him..not yet talk to him i hoppe it will work out because it is very hard to understnd
