signs of a controlling boyfriend
Is this an early sign of a controlling boyfriend? Should I be concerned?

I’ve only been going out with my boyfriend for almost 2 months, but I have known him for many years. I’m 19 and he’s about to turn 21. I love him. I love spending time with him. But, he asks me every day to come over. Which was no big deal at first, but now he’s starting to seem very upset when I tell him that I’m hanging with my other friends first. He doesn’t seem mad, he just will say things like, “well, have fun…” but you can tell that he’s kind of annoyed.

He wants me to hang out with him in all of my free time, it seems. I’m not use to that. I like my space. He’s very sweet though. He makes me happy, but I just want to be alone sometimes. I’m not use to being with a guy every single day…

I don’t know. I was just wondering if this seemed a bit controlling…or if he’s just really clingy?
I’ve invited him along to hang out with my friends, but it makes him seem a little irritated because then we’re not spending “alone time” together anymore.

hhmm, ur relationship is still fresh, he really likes u and jus wants to hang out with u. maybe he’s bored and thinks of u all the time. he seems a bit clingy, but ur gonna hav to get use to that. if u feel that u need some space from him try to find other ways in communicating with him, when ur not around him, Instant messaging him, texting him or what not. he probaly feels that u really don’t like him the way he does. let him know, and prove to him that u really like him, and tell him how u feel about him. does he work?because he has to know that u got to live as well. just talk to him, and tell him how much u love him. if he really wants to be with u, and doesn’t knwo ur friends that well, he’s going to act that way when all of u guys are together. only time can tell, jus enjoy the time u guys hang out. try to get him to to get to know ur friends.

he’s just in that part of the relationship where he’s really excited inside and just wants to spend a lot of time with you, just make plans and let him know in advanced.but include him in it. he loves u, and just wants u to love him back with the same.
