Question - (18 September 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 18 September 2008)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend of 3 years is very controlling. I have lived at his house, well his MOMs house for 3years. For the past year he has really been trying to control me.

He has:

* Put me on different curfew times. 11pm, 7pm, 8pm, now its 9pm. I have a curfew!I'm 22 next month!! If I'm 15min late he won't talk to me for the rest of the night. Once he didn't open the door for me, wouldn't answer his phone. His brother opened the door. How embarrassing :/ He doesn't like me being out late..thats what he says.

* I like to save my money and he's so against it. He doesn't see why I don't like to spend it. I always keep $100 something in my wallet for me and somehow cause of him I end up spending all of it. I think $100 something should last a week, don't you. He always wants to go do stuff. If we don't go out he will complain and wine that he's bored.

* If he gets pissed off he always walks away from me like a 5year old (hes 24) and blames me for everything and he will ignore me completly. Pretty much cleaning the day. This happened at the fair!!

* He has told a me once that I cannot hang with certain friends cause they area bad influence on me.

Pretty much trying to run my life...

sappygirl agony auntNo One can control you unless you let them.

You are your own women, why are you putting up with it?

If you don't like it, then you have the freedom to end it and move on. He sounds very immature for a 24 year old.

If you stay, this is what you have to put up with. He will not change, and you cannot change him...but you can change what you do and how you react. It's your life..why are you letting him live it?
