  • desperate need of advice boyfriend does not want me to travel to see family & friends (kind of long)?

    My boyfriend and I got into a big fight today because I am going to Georgia to visit family and friends I havent seen in 3 years. I have been in a serious relationship with my boyfriend for three years as well so basically I havent seen then since I got into this relationship due to personal things that were holding me back. (car accident and death in family)

    This year I want to go in two weeks and I told him that I do not want to go another year without going again. And we both agreed that we should go together someday. Well we both lost our jobs around the same time but I had money aside for this trip back home since early this year. I really want to go because last year was the worst year of my life due to events like earthquakes where my family suffered and i was hurt.

    Well here is the fight early this year I went to Canada all expense to chaperone my youngest sister for an acting audition with Disney. My mother told her if I do no go with her to supervise her than she would not be able to go. So my little sister begged me and I said ok at the time I did invited my Boyfriend but he did not have his passport in time.

    Second was the Bahamas trip where it was a family get together we go to a trip every year and I invited him to go to the cruise and he declined because it was his daughters birthday. So I told him that we get back Monday morning he told me he did not want to take the chance. So he did not go and I understood and when I got back on Monday we both realize that he should have came because he saw his daughter later in the day meaning he would not miss her birthday after all cause that was the time he picked her from her mothers house.

    Well now he is upset because this is the third trip without him and he wants me to stay with him keep in mind that we do not live together. I am 24 and he is 30. I really want to see my family and friends and my sister wants to come with me too its not a trip for me its going back home. I do not want to go another year without going there and after the year i had last year This is a great positive year for me. Where things been going well but since he lost his job he is acting as if the world ended. I even told him that he does not have to pay we can drive and it would be a lot cheaper anyways he stil declines. He tells me that I am selfish and in a relationship if someone have circumstance you shouldnt go on three trips without your partner. What do you guys think?

    I know its long but I am really needed of some advice.

  • BF doesnt feel like he is needed feeling confused> Help!?

    So me and my SO been together for two years now and lately we been getting some arguments he says he doesn't feel that he is needed in this relationship. Well this is whats been going on with my life the beginning of this year i had got into a pretty bad car accident neck brace and everything was in rehab for eight months because of it and my family was affected by the tragedy in Haiti that obviously was devastating for me in less than a month.

    I handle the situation pretty well as so i thought because i still kept going to school working and just not really show casing my feelings trying to be strong for my family because everyone was mourning. Well fast forward months later to now lately i been having moments where i am constantly thinking of those situations where its affecting my driving everything.

    I started to feel like life wasn't real my thoughts were becoming suicidal and funny thing about i am taking psychology class right now and they were talking about post traumatic stress disorder and the symptoms were close to what i was dealing with so i made an appointment immediately to get professional help because i just didn't know how to control these feelings.

    Well i was really embarrassed to tell my SO about my situation because i always talk about how depressed i was getting lately and he always say it will get better over time but i just didn't want to keep talking about the same thing. I told him the day before i went on my appointment to see my therapist and he was UPSET that i didn't tell him anything. Angry

    Pissed off that i didn't involve him in my decision to seek professional help and now he feels that his advice doesn't mean anything. So that was last week and now this week my birthday is coming up and my sisters decided to get me personal trainer since i gain so much weight from my recovery from the car accident well now he is upset about it and feels uncomfortable that a dude is going to be trainer so i said okay i tell my sisters to get me a women to be my trainer so he can feel more comfortable.

    Well, later on that day I called after school and his voice was so far and i was asking him what sup and he tells me that he doesn't feel needed in our relationship and that he use to help me with my problems and fitness and now that i am getting help he feels there is no need. What am i suppose to do to make him feel that he is wanted? Is he right for feeling the way he feels? I don't know I'm just confused help a girl out cause I'm clueless right now to what to say i look at it as a positive thing because i am trying to better myself?? any advice be helpful thanks in advance

  • Had a Dream my Boyfriend told me he went on a date with a coworker and wanted 2 Break up?

    I had a dream this crazy dream last night that my Boyfriend broke up with me. It started by me being at home while he was at work cause he always call me over the phone while he is at work on break or whatever. And he tells me that he went on a date with a coworker because she was nice. Said that do you think I am happy statements. We argue sometimes and he do mention that i am moody. So he tells me that she is less moody. I remember I was crying and my heart sank and I told him I love him and I am still in love with him and asked him doesn't he feel the same and there was an awkward silence. I remembered feeling devastated because I put so much of my heart out there and left crying in shock and then all of sudden I woke up with the feeling the fear i felt in my dream. Anyone understands what this means

  • Age difference between my BF and I need advice on going out?

    So my BF is 29 and I am 23 I have been in Florida for three years this year and I moved here from Georgia and lived there for almost 9 years. Obviously I had a lot of friends in GA so I am use to going to parties and events with some of my close friends. Ever since I came to FL its been hard to make good friends I can say I made one good friend since I been down here and were cool. So this is the situation right now I want to start going out again I am not saying that I am a party girl and wants to do it all the time but I kinda wanna do something different than the whole dinner and movie thing.

    I tell my BF this and he tells me that he is done with the whole party thing mainly because he use to be a DJ so has done the whole partying thing when he was younger. I did a lot of partying to but that was up until I was 20 going on 21 when I moved to FL then after one year trying to settle down here I met my BF on my birthday when I turned 22. Ever since then we just been so serious and I love him I do but I just wish he would go out sometimes I am an extrovert and he is an introvert and we are so different sometimes.

    Last night we had dinner with his family and his older brother came here with his two kids and wife from Europe and my BF's older brother and wife with my BF sister went out to a lounge not even a club and he didn't want to go out because he said he is retired from "Clubbing and the whole going out thing". I said do you make an exception sometimes and he says only in special occasions I thought to myself what more of a special occasion are you looking for when its your older brother last night in the US.

    At that point I realize how I feel like I am missing out a life outside these doors its not like I want to be a huge party girl but I just don't know what to do. I try to tell him lets go out and its a huge argument. Question is,

    How do I get my boyfriend to go out more with me? How can I convince him out of his retirement to just go somewhere anywhere besides movies and restaurants? ( I do not want to sneak behind his back just to have a good time in a different atmosphere. Sometimes I think its the age difference but I just think he should try to make an exception for me since I am still young and wants to experience these things. So lost on what to do or say I need help?

  • Do you think I bummed the interview or was the interviewer missed out on a potential good employee?

    So this is what happen the other day I went to an interview that was reffered to me by my sisters friend. She told me that her friends works at a law firm and they are looking for a law clerk so I said sure I am interested cause i am looking for work I am a Business Grad so I accept being that its so close to my college. So i faxed in my resume and cover letter and the lawyer was impressed at my writing skills so we set up an interview. Well when i got there I sat down in this room and talk to the lawyer that was interviewing me he asked me a bunch of questions that are typical during an interview because i did practice. He wanted to know where i was born, how old was I etc.. I didnt think anything of it. Then he ask me for salary requirements and how much i want and instead of saying open i listen to my sister and told him i wanted 15-20 an hour.

    Then he shuts me out and says this positiion only pays 11 an hour. So i told him I am negotiable and is open to that then he ask me am i the sole provider in my family and i told him no but I kind of am cause i live with my mom and I actually want to help her out at home. So all of sudden im thinking i bombed the interview with that line. So then the wierd thing he all of sudden says you have a POP QUIZ and im thinking to myself I havent heard that line since middle school. And he was serious so he gave me questions staying:

    1) What would i do if I caught David (friend of my sister) texting during business hours?

    2) What do I think of Obama's performance so far?

    3) What would I do if a client gets angry at me and tells me I am transfering calls to the lawyer?

    I had to literally write a 3 page essay on all these questions I was so frustrated I wanted to leave but I didnt because I am representing my sisters friend and didnt want to give him a bad impression. So i wrote the essay and hes like oh thanks. Well unfortunatley I cannot pay you what you want and you have a darn good resume and you might get what you want. Come back in a month and i will re-interview you. I know I am young 23 but is this is the real world suppose to be lol Do you think I bombed the interview with the salary requirements or do you think this was wierd interview position?? I am confused:(
