What should I do?
I have been seeing my current boyfriend for almost a year now. A month after I met him, I had some family problems so I moved in with him. A few weeks after that he told me he loved me and wanted to marry me. I was so happy with him that I said yes. On the fourth of July, we broke our engagement but are still living together as boyfriend and girlfriend and on our "anniversary" of our initial engagement, he said he'll ask me to marry him again. I tell him all the time that we aren't compatible and he says he can't see himself without me. He is VERY overprotective and he hates me going out anywhere without him. I'm 21 and he's 36. I know he has had a lot of experiences but I was a sheltered child and haven't ever been to a club, concert, or anything like that. He keeps saying he'll take me, but never does. And when I want to go with a girlfriend, he says no or says yes until the time comes and at the last minute changes his mind. He tells me I am a grown woman and can do what I want but he treats me like I'm 14. I love him, and I want to try to make this work, but we just seem to be on different pages. Now, he's really jealous because I am talking to a friend of mine that used to date my sister. He thinks that I am going to leave him for any guy that I talk to, even my sister's ex! I don't know what to do. Should I keep trying, or just leave him behind?
