Lut us know how it goes K?
Teko, he did exactly what u said. I told him I couldn't take his child like behavior and if he didn't straighten up that I'm done. This was during a phone convo over lunch. 2hrs later he sends me a text saying he has a surpise for me tm when I come to his house cus he knows he can be a mean boyfriend at times!
Now I'm not getting all excited just yet, but what should I make of this. His he really afarid to lose me and realizes he needs to change. Or is he just doing it to just appease me?
I think he's still gonna act crazy so I'm not getting wrapped up in this little surprise he has prepared.
Yea everyone is telling me he has showed u everything u need to know! That I need to not bother w him. I'm getting to that were that just might happen. I'm gonna talk to him later today. Any advice on what to say? If he doesn't change we r over! I'm to mature to be dealing w child like behavior from a 25yr old.
I agree he will not grow out of it and I would see it as a red flag. He gets defensive and in his own way has to diss your friends and tell you how they diss you and thereby hurt your feelings needlessly? Oh Yeah! I would be saying it like I mean it and let him storm out the front door never to return! Who needs that? Life is way too short to always be babysitting someones emotional outbursts, especially when they dont make any sense.
Hmmm, u don't think he will grow out of it. I'm starting to think the same thing. Like his behavior is so outrageous...I think he might be bipolar. I suggested maybe he goes to counseling to help him fig out his emotions...was I wrong for that? He of course got mad.
hmm... that sounds like a difficult situation. In my opinion.... if he is 25 this is not a maturity issue that will change over time... it is something that will never go away.
So if you don't think you can handle it, then it may be time to throw in the towel.
On the other hand, he could have just had a bad day, or had something going on at work, and just ended up trash talking about your friend because he needed an outlet to bent his frustrations.
If you stay, be prepared to let go of all your friends in order to keep him, do not expect him to attend any gatherings where he has to share you and it will eventually come down to you avoiding them as well just to avoid a fight.
I would put him to the test and see how long before he explodes over something silly again.
Simply matter of factly state your case and let him know his attitude and behavior are irrational and if this is what a relationship is maybe you are not the right match for him. Let him take it from there, and like I said, I would test it to see how genuine he really is or how much he is trying to manipulate to get his own way. My guess is he will do whatever necessary to get what he wants and then when he thinks he has you suckered in again you will be right back where you are now. I think he has no control over how he feels or the way he sees things. Almost a paranoia from your description. Good luck.
