Boyfriend Situation, Need Advice?

Me and my boyfriend of 2 years have been arguing, sometimes times are good and other times they are kind of bad because he has no patience and gets mad over the little things, this irritates me and when we talk about our problems things get better. I know i can be the problem to because im clingy and very attached to him, i don't ever want to break up with him but with his attitude and rudeness...it makes me want to give up, but the love is what stops us from breaking up. So is there anything that we both can work out so that we can change these problems?...thanks

    You need to have a conversation about whether or not you guys want to stick out the hard times and stay together. Every single relationship has hard times, it wouldn't be real if it didn't. You need to see how you both stand on whether or not you want to try to work it out, or call it quits.

    If you both are on the same page and want to stay in the relationship, you need to tell each other the things that the other does that bother you (enough to be a deal breaker, you can learn to let go of little things that aren't worth trivializing a relationship). Get those things off your chest, and make a commitment to each other that you will try not to do those little things around each other. For example he will try not to get so mad at little things, and you will try to not be so clingy. Get the issues out on the table, be perfectly honest, and really make a commitment to change those things that are harming your relationship.

    Every relationship needs work. TV, movies, magazines, etc make it looks like a healthy relationship has to be so easy, breezy no effort at all and tha'ts why you're meant to be together. Sorry, but that's bullshit. Every relationship has hard times, and every relationship needs work and compromise on both parts to make it work. The way I see it, everything that is worth it is worth working at, everything that is worth it is never easy. If it was too easy I would wonder why.

    i no htis probably isnt te best advice but with me im the type of person that HATES conflict and fights.... so anytime my boyfriend starts to get mad or i can tell is irritated ill change the subject right away or make him laugh... it cools down the situation and avoids a "nothing" fight. i tell him all the time being mad is a waste of an emotion haha so i try really hard to just avoid it. now if its something really serious then you should talk to him, but listen to him too hear what he has to say otherwise like i said avoid the "nothing" fights they go no where and just add tension to the relationship

    well, you kind of already know what your problems are and that's the first step. Relationships are confusing sometimes and you need a hell of a lot of understanding. If you guys really love each other you can address your diffrences and work on them.

    If he thinks your to clingy then let him go chill with his buddies sometimes without you going with him or calling him. Sometimes the healthiest thing for a relationship is breathing space.

    If she can make the effort to over-come this transgression, then good, go for it, continue. If the breach of trust was just to great, then end it and move on. Decisions like this are best made quickly for the benefit of both partners. An even level of maturity and honesty can be key to the success of any relationship. This can mean putting the unchangeable past behind, or moving on. Sounds like the balls in her court.

    When you guys get mad at each other "Stop talking (both of you) go into other rooms if you can and write each other a letter about how you each feel and why you are mad and what he can do or you can do to forgive each other so they'll be no yelling but your still getting how you feel out! :] Hope I've helped!

    Talk to him and tell him what's going on. Figure it out, and if you cant then try taking some time apart? Maybe be a little less clingy.

    I would tell him that you are feeling this way first. Maybe if he knew that you were to the point of leaving then he would take the time to communicate. If you can get through that then maybe you can go to couples therapy. There they can teach you how to talk to eachother, without the walls up. Hope this helps!

    I'd just nicely tell him he needs to stop his attitude and stop being rude to you. As for the fighting part, I'd just apologize for everything and hopefully he will to and ask him if he wants to go to a movie or something to heal the damage. Good luck sweetie =]
