My(24F) BF(25M) of 8 years won’t let me go to New York w/ my 5th grade best friend. How am I supposed to feel about that? He says that he doesn’t want a girlfriend that “values friendships over respecting their partner” and says that the only thing that’s going to happen is me cheating on him. He hates when me and her even go to dinner together and she is my best and only friend. He has like no friends and doesn’t hangout w anyone but me. I told him after graduation, I want to travel more and that involves him and also me traveling w my best friend!
She’s been to New York and has a place in Connecticut where her grandma is and we planned on going there as well before I start my new grad nurse position and her the police academy. But he threatens to break up with me if I do that and accuses me of things(even though he’s been unfaithful more times than I can count”. I don’t know how I’m supposed to feel because I genuinely see no issue in what I want to do but he makes me feel crazy for things like this.
And I look at other gfs in relationships and they still have their own life and I’m so jealous. He gets so controlling and he’s just so weird. Do i respect his boundary or is this something I should really really be concerned about???
He would have a serious issue if we even went to the beach without him…2hr away.
