    My boyfriend is always talking about his friends. He's always saying how he wants to be with them and stuff like that. Sometimes I wanna go out with him somewhere and he gets mad cuz he wanted to hang out with his friends. I'm so tired of feeling like i have to compete with his friends. First of all, they don't do anything for him, and they're always so available because they don't have lives, they don't have a gf or bf and he seems to think that its not true. I don't know what to do anymore. Why do you think he wants to be with them so much?why do you think he acts like he's gonna die if he doesnt get to hang out with them at least once a week even though he sees a few of his friends at his college every monday and wednesday?

    He's not wrong at all. Just because you're dating doesn't mean you get a claim on all of his time. He wants to see his friends at least once a week? That's absolutely nothing at all. You're supposed to hold on and keep up contact with your friends when you're in a relationship. People who drop their whole lives on their girlfriends command end up either A. being completely alone when the relationship is ends, or B. begin to resent the girl when they start to miss their old life.

    Let him hang out with friends, and go hang out with your own. He's not going to give up his friends, and you getting mad about it all the time will drive him away. To be blunt, you're acting clingy, and he will only be able to put up with that for so long.

    Im not stopping him from hanging out with his friends, its not that I see anything wrong with it. The problem im having is because there are many times that we make plans to be together and he completely disses me to be with his friends. sometimes we go out and he doesn't wanna stay out late cuz he's tired, but when he goes out with his friends he'll stay out til like 3 in the morning. I dont think he's being fair

    "You're right to 'allow' him to his time with his friends"
    She does not have to "allow" anything, it's not her decision.
    If he made plans with you then drops them, talk to him because that i just plain disrespectful. But, if you are blowing it out of proportion then you will only push him away.

    If you say "are more important than me then you can be with them and not me " then chances are he will leave you. that's one of the worst thing you could ever say. You're not married, he can do a he wants. Just ask for the time that you want, but putting it in the way that other girl said will only leave you hurt, single, or together and utterly miserable.
