Boyfreind vs Facebook!!?

Ok I am having serious issues with my boyfriend because of my Facebook page. He is extremely jealous he can't seem to understand that I have male friends as well as female I have never been unfaithful to him nor given him reason to believe otherwise. He has threatened to break up with me if I do not deactivate my page, I have tried to compromise by giving him my password but he only wants females on my page. I feel he only wants to control me an giving in would be a big mistake?...not sure what I should do.

    Well, here's the thing. What's a boyfriend? It's a guy with whom you would have an exclusive social relationship (as in hanging out with, etc.) that will also be physical (i.e. at least to some degree sexual). Here is the problem from your Mom's perspective: a)you are too young to have a sexual relationship, and b)you are too young to commit yourself to just one guy. Questions you gotta ask yourself to make a decision are: a) What's the reason you want a boyfriend besides the fact that it seems cool and makes you feel like more of an adult? Adults have to deal with very adult responsibilities like possibly getting pregnant or sick, or go through a lot of emotional distress. Do you really want that in your life at this point? b) Your main priority right now should be doing well in school and thinking about what you want to do with your life when you graduate. Do you think dealing with all the relationship stress will help you or hurt you in that? c)Sure, in the right circumstances, sexual things feel good, and your hormones must be raging. However, as you know, there is no free lunch. You gotta realize what feels good in a given moment can have lots of undesirable consequences later (e.g. the guy brags about what he's done with you to other kids, the guy leaves you for another girl, you get sick or pregnant, whatever). Are you sure you will be able to handle all the stuff that comes after the good part?

    He is being really controlling. He has no right to ask that from you. You're your own person, and you are entitled to your own circle of friends, whether they be male or female. Honestly, having friends of both sexes is actually beneficial; it makes you a more well-rounded person, and frankly, imagine how awkward everyone would be around the opposite sex if they only had same sex friends!

    Confront him about this. Be direct and stand your ground. If you have never given anything for him to doubt you on, he is being completely unreasonable. Every relationship requires a certain level of trust, and if he can't give that to you when you tell him you're being faithful, he's not mature enough to handle a relationship.

    Overall, it sounds like he's being very unfair to you. Let him know that you understand he's concerned, but that you have the right to your own friends, and if he can't trust you, he doesn't deserve you as a girlfriend. Good luck! I hope everything works out for you two.

    Change your password to something else. Never ever give it out to anyone. Bad move. You should not have to prove anything if you are innocent. He can do a lot of damage to your friendships with that password. Are you his slave cuz it sounds like that is what he wants. He sees you as someone who has to be controlled. Let him break up with you, he will be doing you a favor if he does. But change that password to a new one before he does. I wouldnt trust him at all.

    If he cannot handle you having male friends, then he isn't worth your time. Sure it's hard to break up, but no boyfriend/husband should EVER take control of your life. If he's a little worried when your with guy friends then that's understandable, but he should trust you and and not be like you can't have any guy friends... He seems like an abuser too.

    He's immature, abusive and clingy. You can do WAY better. He needs a life.

    If he's jealous over a FACEBOOK PAGE I think you have serious issues with that guy. You need to understand his side before you do anything rash but there's definite rockiness. The best thing for you to do is thinking about dropping his ***. If he can't deal with a girl having a facebook page then he needs to either get over his issues or find something else worth griping about, girl.

    He is giving you an Ultimatum!! i would recommend a break up if he is going to let something silly like Facebook and FB friends get in the way he is clearly not ready or mature enough for a relationship.. dont fall for this ultimatum and breaking up would be the best becauase he clearly doesnt trust you and you haven't given him a reason to not trust you! you deserve better! be careful cause people like this can get possesive and physical!

    Your Best choice: Breaking up with him

    He's a typical jealous guy. He has extreme envy and is very controlling. This the kind of guy that is obviously not worth your time, trust me. Every guy I've ever seen like this has been garbage and the relationship NEVER works out. Get rid of him now before it gets worse.

    This guy sounds like a real control freak. This is not a good sign. Things can only get worse from here. Seems like he just doesnt want to trust or understand you. I would think about how much this relationship means to you.

    His ridiculous amount of jealousy is a HUGE RED FLAG.

    This guy will take complete control of your life and eventually end up beating you if you stay with him.

    Also, "threatened to break up with [you]"? Are you serious? You think that's a dude worth staying with? If you stay with him, ANYTHING you do that he doesn't like will lead to threats of some kind. Guys like that START with threatening to break up with you and progress to threatening to kill you.

    I strongly advise that you get out of that relationship.

    well it seems like he just cant trust you and thats like one of the most important thing in a relationship right?so what if you tell him 'how can you not trust me?!if its really hitting you that hard that i have guy friends then i guess we should break up so i can get on with my life... i'll expect you to never be walking or talking with another girl OR have them as a facebook friend.., and if i do catch you we'll be done' so if you feel like he's taking it too serious and getting in the way of your life (in the wrong way) then drop him like a rock
