Sweet-thing agony auntNext time you plan to meet a friend for a drink, especially a male friend, you should invite your b/f to come along. Then he won't have to worry and wonder what you're really up to. Once he knows them and feels more comfortable about them, he probably won't mind you going with them once in awhile. Good luck.

Well, he shouldn't have to join you all the time. He could get to know them at some point, and then his trust for them may come. But that is ridiculous. He should know, you have a life outside of him, especially being 200 miles away. Doesn't he have a life outside of you?

Go out with your friends. If this starts, turn the phone off and deal with him later. Make him realize that this kind of behavior will push you away from him. You have a right to have friends and hang out with them. What gave him this kind of a ridiculous idea that your friends are really out to rape you? Sounds like he's got some real issues beyond trust if he seriously thinks this without some hard proof. I mean, is this what he thinks friends do? Is he out to rape his friends? Basically, you have to make him realize how ridiculous he sounds.

You need to get a boyfriend where you live because you can't be with him a lot, but he doesn't want you hanging out with people either. So you need to make a decision because it's not going to work out this way.
