writes:My boyfriend and I have been together for nearly two years. Overall, we have a pretty good understanding and respect for each other. Recently, however, he's been acting different. We do a lot of outdoor activities together. Sometimes when it's hot, I'd like to just wear pant and a sports bra, but he tells me I can't. About a month ago, we were hanging out with a bunch of friends, and one of my girlfriends suggest that we should go out dancing sometime, and my boyfriend responded "No she's not." I've also been making new girlfriends recently, and when I tell him the conversations I have with them, he gets angry that I discuss our relationship to them. It's only started happening about a couple months ago, and I don't understand why. Any thoughts? Reply to this Question

 Unless you have limited dating experience, you should know exactly what this is.
He's controlling. This guy was on his best behavior (honeymoon phase) until a couple of months ago. Now his true nature is coming out.
The question is....are you going to put up with it?

Do we really need to spell out what this is to you and what this could be the early signs of?
"My boyfriend and I have been together for nearly two years. Overall, we have a pretty good understanding and respect for each other."
Forget all that stuff and focus on this issue and sort it. Do not let 2 years and a generally nice relationship be an excuse to let this slide. Put your foot down.
