Me and my boyfriend have been dating since last Aug and on new years of this year we decided to make it official.
Lately I've been going insane, because I feel like he's being too needy/needs too much attention. We go to school an hour apart, but we see each other every weekend.
It first started one day when we got in a fight and I called him rude and mean... and he started crying.
Every party we've been to together after that, he keeps getting upset afterwards and saying I didn't talk to him enough or pay him enough attention. I felt like I was talking to him, but trying to make some new friends at the same time.
I don't party a lot or go out a lot, so when I go out, I try to make some new friends and meet some new people.
When he takes me to parties where I don't know anyone, I try and make an effort to try and meet his friends and talk to them and get to know them.
This past weekend, we went to a rave. I was having a good time, dancing with him, and meeting new people. I haven't been to a rave since last yr, Halloween, so I was super excited, and wanted to make some new friends. While I was talking to new people, I made sure to pay attention to my boyfriend. I made sure to dance with him, kiss him, and massage him (we were on E). I had a super fun time, and was really happy. But when it ended my boyfriend started crying because he said I didn't pay enough attention to him, I didn't make out with him enough, and that I was paying more attention to the new people I met. I really wanted him to have fun, and because he didn't, it totally ruined both of our nights.
I just think that because we spend so much time together (we rarely party together, we don't have cars so we don't go out) that when we do go out to parties/raves, we shouldn't have to cling onto each other so much.
I just don't know what to do anymore. I feel like I have to babysit him whenever we go out. I want to party and rave without him, but then he'll get mad if I don't invite him. He's really sensitive, so I don't know how to bring this up to him or what to say.
Any ideas?
