plz give me advice...

ok. i'm dating this guy named Alex. he's really sweet, but he can REALLY be a jerk. it's really hard for me to stay with him because he's SO emotional and tempermental. he's... i don't know how to explain it really... it's just hard for me to be with him. and he's also really pushy, as in the kind of, " have sex with me now" kinda way. but he is trying to change and i still love him deeply. should i move on or stay with him?

People don't really change. You can't alter your personality traits - my advice, move on.

And I really hope you haven't had sex with him!

I disagree to a certain extent with ^^

In my experience, people change over time when it comes to certain traits, e.g.:

When I was in Middle School, I was incredibly quiet. I never really said much unless asked a direct question that I couldn't answer with a nod or shake of my head. I'd listen to people a lot and give advice if asked.

Now I talk more. I was on the debate team in high school. I've given speaches at functions, yadda yadda. The point is I changed a bit.

I think you need to think about two things:

1. Is changing what HE wants? He shouldn't change to make you happy. Changes to yourself should be for yourself, and you should tell him that, and ask him how he feels about it.

2. Would you date him if he didn't change? If he says that he doesn't want to change, and the answer to #2 is no, then move on.

If he answers 'yes' to #1, then I think you should tell him all the things that YOU think need changing, and ask him what he thinks about that. I think you should give him time to try to change. I think maybe you should wonder whether or not he's the only one that should do changing, and whether or not there are some things in which you should do some accepting.

Just things to think about.

i'm with sean on this one "does he want to change or are you forcing him too?" is the real thing

Well...I was kind of in a similar situation.

My guy basically cussed his parents out on a daily basis, disrespected them in many ways, and tormenetd his little brother. (That's more normal though.) He even wanted me to quit singing at church on Sundays because the rehersals "kept us apart". It was hell basically.

He tried to pressure me into stuff too. I never gave in. I stood up for what I believed in, and that kept me going.

My advice...move on. It's the only thing that'll help. Unfortunately I did and I lost a great friend too, but it was just too much.

(BTW with him it even got to the point that after he broke up he bragged that we did stuff...nothing EVER happened, and he knows it. So I would get out now before he gets angry enough to spread rumors like that.)

~ Well...this could go in both directions. If he's REALLY trying to change, than it shows that he really loves you enough to do that. And if you REALLY love him...then I don't see what the problem is.
However...I kinda feel that you're hiding something. I could totally be wrong, and I hope that I am....but it seems like there's more.
Theres also that chance that he's faking the whole change thing. And if this is the case...let him go. God Bless
