Hello I am 17 years old and so is my boyfriend. We have been together since October of 2003 and right now my boyfriend has decided that we both need to take a break from each other. I am a very possessive person and during our relationship i would always say " are you looking at that girl" and "do you like her"? . I have gotten over that now but i also dont ever want to let him go out with his friends and he gets mad at me which i understand.
We are very much in love and i believe he is the one for me. He has broken up with me about 3 times and got back with me because i told him i would change and every time I didnt follow through with what i said and i told him that i would change every time i messed up and he kept on giving me chances but now he said hes just tired and he wants to take a break. I cant handle it though, i feel sick to my stomach because i am so heartbroken.
He told me when we decided to take a break that he thinks he will realize how much he does love me and come back. He also told me dad on the phone that is was really bothering him alot that we were on a break and he called me that same night pretty much for nothing, I guess he just couldnt stop thinking about me. But what makes me feel like he will come back to me is that during the summer he went out with his friends to the lake for a day and a half and when he got back he came by my house to see me and was telling me how much he was in love with me and always wanted to be with me.
I know that alot of it is my fault for the way i have been to him and i know now that i will change for him and i told him that but he doesnt believe me anymore because of all the times i have told him that and didnt follow through. We have been going out for about a year and we always say that we always want to be together but he wants to take a break and i just really want him back. It tears me up to think about not having him around and i just cant stop thinking about him.
I was just wanting to know your thoughts on what i should do and if you think he will realize how much in love with me he is and come back? Oh yea and also ever since we have been going out we have spent almost 95% of the time with each other and i think also it could be that we spend way too much time with each other. I would appreciate your advice. Thank You
