I need advice

#1
Hello Y'all. I'm in a relationship right now, and I've been feeling like breaking up for some while. I get the feeling he loves me more than I do, he is very clingy and eager to have sex. I don't want to for a series of religious and personal reasons, and he said he understood and accepted, but now I get the feeling I'm just disappointing him. Can someone help me? What should I do?

Hey Natalie, I hope you are doing good today.
Breaking up can be a really big thing go through, you should really sit down and talk to your boyfriend about the clingyness and your feelings of disappointing him. Though I dont think you are disappointing him. People show and respond to love differently. Sometimes the actions other do for thier significant others may seem like a common thing to do, mean a great deal to thier partners. Take as much time as you need to gather your thoughts and feelings.
Also maybe take a day for yourself to hang out friends without your boyfriend. Just to give you some you time

I hope you have a good day and feel a bit better!

Your life needs to be your life first, foremost, and always. That means it is your decision about what and the the timing of what, and you do not need reasons for those decisions except that it is your choice. That includes how serious a relationship you want to be in at any time as well as what the relationship includes. You do not need to "do" anything except set boundaries and as long as those boundaries are met and you are happy and having fun then go with it. If those boundaries are pushed in a way that makes you uncomfortable simply tell him that your boundaries are not negotiable and not something for discussion, accept them or move on and be proud of yourself for being your own person. If you boyfriend is disappointed in you or you are letting him down he has his own obligations to himself to deal with - and that is fine too- but his issues do not reflect on you as a person and nor yours on him. You are each individuals that can and should make decisions for yourself.
