    I know exactly how you feel, I am in the exact same boat. I've been with ym boyfriend for just over a year now and I love him to peices but i've completely changed from how I was when we first got together. Everything was fine for months and months in fact i'm not really sure when I started being so obsessed, but I can't get by the day not hearing off him sometimes it makes me feel so sad that he doesn't want to talk to me but it's not like that at all, a couple should be able to go a day without having to speak its stupid because I know that and I just can't help it. If we have an argument and he's done something wrong i'm the one that gets worried i'll loose him and I apologise and end up ringing and ringing to try and make things okay between us but he wants a bit of space to just forget about things and I make everything worse by trying to talk to him and apologise and everything! I avoid making plans with my friends just in case I might get the chance of spending tiem with my boyfriend instead, but when I know he's busy and I go out with my friends I think about him but i'm fien and happy knowing we as a couple are good but I can go out with my friends and have a good time while he's out with his, so I think to myself right i'll make more arrangments with my friends and if he then wants to see me i'll say ive got arrangements and we'll see each other another time. But it doesn't work because i'll end up going out with my friends then my boyfriends wants to do something and I find myself resenting the fact i'm stuck seeing my friends when I could be spending time with my boyfriend so I go back to waiting around to hear off him! It's so hard to try and change because I don't want to loose my boyfriend so I don't want us to break up and me try and move on and become more of my own person I want to stay with him but not be such an obsessive! But I don't know what to do I try and keep myself busy doing other things but then I get really annoyed if I do something and then he wants to see me and I can;t just spend anytime by myself anymore just chilling and watching tv or something like I used to enjoy doing from time to time but now all i do is sit there not even being able to concentrate on a film because i'm too busy thinking why doesn't he want to see me, whats he doing should I ring him, should I text him and if we've fallen out I just ring him and text him apologises which I know will get on his nerves but I just want him to know i'm sorry so that we can get on with being happy. arghhhh it's driving me crazy I was thinkign maybe there might be something psychologically wrong with me and maybe I should go see my doctor am I being stupid or should I see a doctor??

      i know exactly how it feels..my boyfriend and i have been together for the past 6 yrs...at first it was rough with my parents, but then everything was setteled and it was ok...recently my boyfriend told me that for the past 2 years he was unhappy, (it hit me like a ton of bricks) he said that i was to controlling and that he was fed up with me and that he dosent feel the same way that he felt 6 years ago..he told me to leave him alone and give him space..but it the hardes thing that he could ever ask.. i am feeling to constantly call him just so that we could make up ad every thing could be ok..but he dosent want to hear from me.. he just wants the chance to have a little time for him self...i told him that i would do any any thing in the world just to make him comfortabe and happy. so i literally begged him tellin him sorry for the times that he ffelt that i was controllin him and made him unhappy..but he didnt react to anything..he dosent understand that i am worried about him and he goes out alot with friends and stay out all night partying while i am home sleeping, so understand where i am coming from..i have my phone 24/7 and i dear not miss a cal from him.i love him very much.. i cry all the time and cannot seem to concentrate on anything else... he hasnt call me for a week..i hurts really really bad..i really tried to apologize and get back everything in good terms, but he didnt react..i dont kno wat to do..i dont want to loose him.

        feel sorry for you. i think you are not for him and he is not for you. move on and think about yourself and your happiness. i can see your suffering but you cant see it yourself..please dont get this deeper into you and your life..do not suffer for who you dont belong to..be strong and live your life..find happiness somewhere else

      I wonder if its. A perception of making him the center of your universe bc he makes you feel a certain way. A way you always needed and wanted to feel but possibly... possibly have not felt before.. really truly. Loved without judgement. He knows how to make u feel wonderful and u don't want to lose that feeling. He maybe a bit of a womanizer and very cute tho if he has you wrapped around his finger so tight. He knows your not going anywhere so maybe just maybe but not def. He thinks he has the green light to explore or just not call u back right away...after all he knows you're not going anywhere. You ARE glued to his finger.

      Sorry, but I can't be bothered reading your wall or words. Is there something about being addicted to a partner which is linked with also being addicted to long boring repetitive sentences?

      I totally get what you're going through, in fact...I was a bit freaked out while I was reading...it sounded exactly like what I'm going through. I get overly upset and apologize whenever my boyfriend and I argue because I'm afraid that he'll leave me because he's so 'independent' and likes spending so much time alone that he doesn't need me like I need him. I too avoid making plans with friends in fear that I'll miss out on hanging out with him. I guess I just can't understand that he'd rather be alone than with me, or that it doesn't make that much of a difference either way.
      We have been together for almost 3 years now but he broke up with me about 6 months ago and we got back together after a month. The break up made me feel even more insecure because even though I could see that it hurt him to let me go, the fact of the matter is that he did, he broke up with me and I never would. Now that we're back together things have been a bit better but I still feel really insecure about the fact that it seems like he can just walk away from me at any point and I'll be left completely devastated.
      When he leaves to go to his parent's house, he never asks me to come with him even though he doesn't even really go to spend time with his family, he just wants to be alone. It makes me feel ill every time I suspect that he's going away. That's right, I suspect cuz he never actually tells me until his bags are already packed and he's practically walking out the door. He probably doesn't tell me before because he knows I'll be sad or upset or something.
      When we're not physically together like in the same space, it's like I don't exist. He doesn't call, doesn't text, it's like he falls off the face of the planet and I hate that. If he's not here with me I want him to call me before he goes to sleep or at least message me goodnight. I want him to tell me how his day was and ask about mine. But he just ignores me, it's like I don't exist. It's not like he's doing really important or time-consuming things that he can't remember to say good night.
      I don't know what to do.

        Move on. He's just not into you and you can't force him

      I, too, have this exact same problem. I dont remember when it started to be this way but I'm soo happy to know that im not alone in feeling this way because for the longest time I thought i was.. My boyfriend and I have been together for over 3 years. I also can never stop thinking of him, not making plans with friends for fear I'll lose a chance to see him, constantly worrying about what hes doing and always on his case about everything. I know that it is driving him away but all i can think about is why do i still feel like im in the 'puppy-dog' stage and he isnt? i tell him its like he doesnt care or love me as much as i love him because he doesnt act like i do. my self-esteem has gone way down and i know that the way i have made this relationship is not healthy. He never wants to do things that I like. It always about what he wants but i do it because i love him and dont want to lose him. You see, my boyfriend is also in College and im in high school still. So that doesnt help. I feel like i need to see him all the time i can before he goes back cuz then i wont see him for over a week at a time. I miss him like crazy but its like he doesnt miss me. if he talks to me or sees me, yay but if he doesnt, ok. no big deal. :/ and now he tells me that im immature and crazy because im so obessessed..idk what to do anymore. i cant control myself..im always crying to him, trying to do something to make him swallow his pride and say he never wants to live without me but he just looks at me like im the dumbest girl in the world but then later, hes sweet and loving. what do i do to stop being so clingy?????
