    My boyfriend won't let me have friends
    Hey, I have been with my boyfriend for 10 1/2 months. We both love each other. We are 19 years old
    To get to the point, one of my mates who I have been mates with for like years. She wants to split me and my boyfriend up. Her and her best mate who is also my mate text me saying my boyfriend is a prick. She said she swore down he squeezed her bum. She kept saying she swears down on her life. Then my boyfriend had it out with her with me there. She said someone squeezed her bum but she wasn't sure who it was, either my boyfriend or his mate. My boyfriend was really annoyed and upset that I accused him of doing something he didn't do. My mate stood on a table and bent over to try show my boyfriend her bum. He told her to 'F**k off' and to stop F**king lying. So from that its obvious she was lying. She flirted with him right in front of me as well. My boyfriend just said get off me and kept saying horrible stuff to her. My other best mate had a go at him. She didn't even see anything she just took my other mates side.

    To get to the point, my boyfriend feels like I don't care because I didn't ask why she made stuff up about us. I just want to forget it. I don't want to fall out with my friends even if she is trying to split us up. He started a massive argument last Saturday night up town because I was dancing with her and I had gone out with her. He said he doesn't want me being friends with them and that I'm putting him 2nd best. Also, I have a twin sister, and he says that by dancing with her and staying out late I am putting him 2nd best.

    I don't know what to do, I just want to forgive my friends and dance with my sister as well as have a boyfriend. Is this major control? Can anyone see it from his point of view? He says that I don't do anything without my sisters permission but its not like that at all, I just want to dance with my sister on a night out as well as my friends. :( He created a massive argument because I wanted us to go half's with the taxi. Also, he said that its not like a normal relationship because I didn't send naked photographs or text him in the morning. He said loads of stuff like how he wanted us to go on a break and see other people, but then when he was sober in the morning he said "sorry for being nasty last night? and that he only wants me and ofc he doesn't want to see other people. He said he only wants me.

    What should I do :( ? Also, when we argue he says "get a taxi home" I know its partly my fault for accusing him and saying "If you squeezed her bum, its over" but we made back up. I said sorry straight away after a few hours and we made up. What should I do? I want to be friends with them :(

    She said this, one of my mates, "Hes really good looking"
    "(boyfriends name) there, just seen him"
    I see her constantly staring at him 24/7 she doesn't take her eyes of him :(
    She even said, well I don't know but someone did, probs your mate then

    Regarding the 'bum squeezing' incident... from your story it seems that your friend might have been flirting with your boyfriend and/or is unsure about who groped her. If she was trying to flirt with him, she was wrong to do that. If she was confused about who touched her, then she was wrong to accuse him when he might be innocent. Either way, she was causing trouble for you and your boyfriend based on misinformation. I can understand why he might not like you hanging out with her. He's probably afraid she'll do it again.

    The rest of your post is somewhat troubling. He cannot tell you that you aren't 'alllowed' to go out with your friends or your sister. Even if he is afraid of them causing more trouble down the road, he cannot make you do anything and shouldn't try. If you think your friends are causing trouble in your relationship, then it would be up to you to decide whether to continue spending time with them. All he can do is explain how he feels and why.

    About your mates not liking your boyfriend... If these people have been your friends for a long time and they object to your boyfriend, you might start to ask yourself why people who care about you, would dislike him? If he makes you happy and is good for you, they should be supportive of your relationship. If they're not, you should find out why. They may see something you do not.

    Finally, the naked pictures comment by your boyfriend is disturbing. Most normal relationships do NOT involve sending naked pictures/texts. I'm not sure where he got that idea, but he's wrong. And, unless you would be comfortable with his friends seeing naked pictures or you, or perhaps the world, should they be leaked onto the internet, I do not think you should even consider sending the pictures. If you two are intimate, then he can see you naked in person. Otherwise, it's a bad idea. Personally, and this is just my opinion based off the little information you provided, I think you should leave him. Most of your friends seem to dislike him, probably for good reason. Also, he seems very immature and not at all ready for a relationship. The whole situation seems like a lot of hassel for a part of your life that should be at your age just fun and enjoyable.

    Not much of a boyfriend, sounds like you have wasted a good 10 months.

    1. good boyfriends and girlfriends do not send naked photos. If you do, expect them to be on Facebook or other internet sites.

    You can do much better then this jerk

    You cannot go back, just make adjustments through SOBER honest communications to resolve things and go forward. If you cannot then you just won't last. Especially with friends like you have and a boyfriend caught in the middle.

    You seem to have a lot of drama in your life.

    A good relationship must have honesty, respect, caring, and a willingness to talk about anything. This relationship doesn't seem to have much of any of this. I think you should move on, find some new friends, and you eventually will meet someone who treats you with love and caring. This isn't the one. I do wish you the best, and good luck.

    Never take or send or give naked photos to anyone. You are guaranteed to regret it.

    Never let anyone else dictate your relationship with your friends or relatives. If a man is dating a twin, he better get used to having the twin play a very, very significant role in his partner's life. I would never dream of trying to stand between a man and his brother in my dating life, and if they were twins, I would particularly understand how close that bond it.

    Your friend sounds like a loose cannon with the flirting and so on but I think he probably did pinch her and she's acting out of frustration that he won't fess up and you aren't trusting her.

    If your friends don't like a guy you're dating, I'd heed their advice. My friends who married people that the rest of us didn't like lived through really horrible marriages. Your friends, unless they are not genuine friends and have some other weird motivation, only want what's best for you. If they think a guy is bad news, I'd take that seriously.

    This sounds like a loser relationship - cut your losses and move on. Just the fact that he's whining that you don't text him in the morning or act like a porn star for him would be enough for me to dump him with no regrets. Total lack of respect for you.

    Sounds like your boyfriend has control issues. He has no right telling you who you can talk to or go out with, especially your sister. That is ridiculous. This thing about the naked pictures is just crazy.
    You need to lose this person before his possessiveness gets really out of hand.

    He is scared of losing you that's all, be completely honest with him. It's not that he wants to control you, he's hurt because you believed your friend. If this girl can show him her bum and he told her to off that can only be a good thing, put more trust in your man.

    He wants to tell you who you can talk to, he wants you to take naked pictures, this is control not a trust issue.
