I can barely understand your question, and you don't say how old the two of you are. You sound too young for a relationship.

ABSOLUTELY!!!! It may even make the relationship even better. Sometimes it takes time for people to mature enough to handle a relationship. After 10 years you may be more mature, and better able to communicate.

My girlfriend and I were having similar arguments.  She thought that I chose parties over her.  We were dating for 5 years and took a break for a couple months and recently got back together.  It is easy for your friend to be influenced by his friends, and his friends (especially if they are single) would like nothing more than for him to break up with you so they could have their "buddy" back.  Your boyfriend needs to stand up for you in front of your friends, or else they are going to walk all over you in front of you and behind your back.  You need to talk to your boyfriend and see if he is willing to stand up for you.  If he is then definitely give him another chance.  If he doesn't want to hear it from you then you should probably look elsewhere.  Knowing he will stand up for you will make your relationship stronger, but if you think he is too easily influenced by friends you are in dangerous territory.  The best of luck to you.  \n\nKen Holmgren

you have nothing to lose but the rest of your life if you are right and if you are wrong.\ngo where you know he might be.\ncall him up and just go where you are both comfortable besides of course the obvious.

It is all about trust...do you trust him??? If so..then why worry!! Go have a good time with your friends(dinner, movie..or day of beauty w/ lunch). If you don't , well then your relationship is headed for the rocks. You are not a married couple , or engaged so it could very well be a matter of budget.\nNOTE: When we got married we paid for our own reception and were on a tight budget...had to cut our "guest list". There were no hurt feelings...people understood and sent their blessings.

I think the maturity level of the two persons involved makes a difference, I mean if you are both willing to accept each other for who you are and for how well you get along, similar interests, good communication, respect, and love. If things are good between the two of you, age should not make a difference. My boyfriend is 22 years younger than I am, we have been together for over two years and things are great! I know what you are talking about though. Finding the right person to share your life with is difficult enough. Age should not be an issue. Let him know this, and let him know how you feel about him, that's about all you can do, the rest is up to him.

and your point is???  My husband is 10 years older than me i was 17 he was 27 when we meet

Well, you didn't tell us how old you are so we have no idea if you're ready to settle down. Not that age would be an indicator that's set in stone but it usually gives context for your life experiences. Just go with the flow so that you see where you really stand on this issue.  If you're not ready to be seriously committed first, don't force it or you'll just end up hurting the both of you.

almost the same thing happend to me. my boyfriend an i have been together for a long time. 6months through he told me that he had to tell me something...he told me about some party he went too an how he had no idea what was going on an blah blah blah, but i forgave him. i mean i figure if it was before the relationship it shouldnt matter. ofcourse trust issues an all that, but he was just scared to tell me, he figured id get "jelous" i have to admit i was a tad bit, but i love him way to much to even trip over things like that. THATS LIFE! people make mistakes.. some bad...some good...If your girlfriend learned from what had happend thats all that matters! dont put her down for it! im sure it hurts her enough already. About the Vegas thing...maybe she does have plans? maybe she is busy? not everything is abal to work out for you or anybody. im sure youve had plans of ur own when she wanted to go some where? i mean GOSH! your only 16. party. have fun! an just because she wants to go to a boys "birthday party" doesnt mean a thing! STOP being so controlling towards her...u sound more like a father than a boyfriend...an if u keep that up you might loose her.....and also about her mother....just leave that her buisness dont get to involed into things an automatically blame her for the mistakes her, her mother, her family has made. She may be a WHOLE diff. person. TRUST ME..I KNOW.\n\n-Stephanie

Regardless of weather you feel that he is a friend or "boyfriend" you need to go to the banquet together. No matter what happens you'll have lots of fun and who knows...\nYou don't have anything to lose girl!

You deserve much better than that, honey.  I know after 10 years it would be hard to leave, but that might be what you need to do.  One of two things could happen...you could possibly move on and find a much better life, or you husband would realize just how much he's lost after you are gone and come running back.  Either way, you should do something.  You can't just sit around and let your husband think that his actions aren't affecting you.\nGood luck with whatever you decide and stay strong!

Move on baby , hook up the lovy at school andlet the guy in the  joint enjoy  the  joint .Time is always  short being young means freedom  to  choose , a boy friend is just  a boy friend not a husband you still  have  your  options all open to experince  other people .\n\nThe boy playing watch dog should be  informed that  he is stepping your  rights and he already knows  that so he will not  stay longer , just confirm to him  that you are moving on  that will be enough for him.

Go. If you are having any doubts now they will only triple the longer this relationship goes on. I was once dating a man who was twelve years older than me, and once a man gets stuck in his ways, he seems to be good for sure. There are plenty of fish in the sea and you know what you want. Your still young enough to have your family unit! Go and and get it! Just because someone treats you good and loves you doesn't mean you should stay with them. People who love you and take care of you and can't start a new family with you are called parents.

Well you need to sit him down and w/ his planner and find a time when he can schedule you in for dinner or movies or whatever. When ever I'm in a long term relationship I like to have one day out of the week where me and my partner can get together and spend time w/ each other. And its very hard to do that sometimes because of our busy schedules but explain to him that for a relationship to last you all need that alone time together to laugh and talk. That if you all don't do this now a couple of months from now who knows where the relationship will be.

If you're happy. You are old enough to make your own desicion. I know a couple where the woman is 10yrs older and they've been together 15 years.

my dear girl you need to start thinking about yourself for once. he obviously has no respect for you or your decisons about your career life. you need to let go as hard as that may be 10 years is a long time but you only have one life to live make it worth your while not his. you deserve to be happy so get rid of that JERK!!!

if you like him it really doesn't matter what your friends thinks...besides, being older can be an advantage in a relation.\nand if you waited for three years, come on! you shouldn't give up just because some fuss\nif you leave him just because of the age, and because of your friends, it would be really silly and insensitive with your own feelings.\nIndepending on the age, you can be good together, and when your heart is broken and you feel alone, there's nothing your friends could do for you (nothing like being with the one you want!)\ngo for it.....care about your feelings....
