I am going to a local community college this year and I have a boyfriend who is a senior in high school. Next year he is planning to go away. I have recently been getting very worried that he is gonna go away and want to party all the time.

I am going to be here for my first year of college with him so I dont feel like I am going to be able to have the same experience that he is. I dont know wheter or not I should be upset.

He doesnt want me to go to parties and says he feels uncomfortable but next year he is gonna go away and do whatever he wants...

What do you think we should do?

When my long distance Ex at uni started telling me to stop going out so I could sit in my room alone talking to him all night I knew it was time for us to split up.

No man should dictate what you can and can't do. They can make you aware of their feelings and hey have a right to expect you to care about those feelings, but a blanket ban on parties is stupid.

He can't expect you to be a nun or to not make new friends. Go out and have a great time and give him reassurance about how you only have eyes for him. If he is still making demands then perhaps you need to think about whether it is better to split up.

Good Luck!! xx

Don't be a fool!! If your boyfriend is so insecure he doesn't want you to go to parties then maybe he needs to take time to reevaluate himself. Let's be for real, you two are going to separate schools. Both of you are going to come in contact with new and exciting people. Parties are a great way to become part of a social circle and meet people. I say screw what you boyfriend say. Chances are you two are going to end up breaking up anyway, and who knows it may be for the better. You will most likely meet someone better and more mature than him in your future. I saw don't let him stop you from exploring the new world you're about to enter.
