writes: I am 18 years old and this year I started my first real serious relationship. Me and my boyfriend have been going out for 6 months now and I have gotten to the point where I find it hard to cope with him not around!!! I get really down, upset and even insecure when he's not around. We see each other on average about 5 times a week, however unless it's a lucky week where I see him 7 times, then I don't feel satisfied.I wasn't like this in the early stages of our relationship, but I have now become very dependent on him and want to be with him all the time.This is rather unusual for me because I have always been a very independent person. I have always liked being by myself and always needed alot of 'me time'. I would often get sick of people if I saw them too much, but not with my boyfriend, it's different and I don't understand why. My boyfriend loves to see me a lot too, however, he, unlike me doesnt have a 'unhealthy need/obsession' to see me 24/7...he still wants his own "me time". Why can't I be like that too? How can I stop craving to see him so much? I don't want to feel like this because it's geting me down.

I know exactly how you feel hun. I am like this too! Trying to learn how to enjoy "me time" again! If you like email me and we can support each other through and maybe find some way of overcoming this.
