Firmly but kindly tell him that you respect the way he feels and you love him very much, but you feel it's unreasonable for him to be so contolling of you and ask that you hang out with ONLY girls. Tell him that relationships are about trust and in trust, people should be free. Tell him that you refuse to be his dog on a leash, that you love him, but you're your own person.

Is he really going to break up with you after over a yaer just becuase you are hanging out with people who have single guys there?

I suspect it's a bluff.

You're not his property. He has no rights over you.

If he does break up wiht you, it's likely he'll come running back. Just try it honey.. you shouldn't someone control you this way.

i think that your boyfriend just has a jelousy problem , lots of boyfriends are too protective.My bet is that he thinks your too amazing and he doesnt want to share or let anyone take you away from him. Maybe you should try bringing him with you to where ever it is your going. Or agree to call him or something like that , maybe also in time it will get better and he will get over it and decide to let you have some fun.
