My girlfriend has become increasingly possessive and demanding over the past few weeks.
It started off with her asking me to spend more time with her, and while I was happy to oblige, it has quickly become a controlling problem. Now, she expects me to accompany her everywhere and never let me out of her sight.
She even goes as far as asking me not to go to work so that I can be with her all the time.
At first, I tried to reason with her and explain that I had to go to work and that it was important for me to do so. But she was having none of it and would get upset and angry when I told her that I had to go. She would tell me that I should be with her and not out working. She would cry and beg me to stay with her and it was becoming increasingly difficult to handle.
I tried to talk to her about it but she would just keep saying that she wanted to be with me all the time and that she didn’t want me to be away from her.
I tried to explain that I needed to work to support us and that it was important for me to do so, but she wouldn’t listen.
Finally, I had to sit her down and explain that I needed to be able to work and that she was not allowing me to do so. I told her that I loved her and that I wanted to spend as much time with her as possible, but that I also had to be able to work and make a living.
I explained that I was doing this for us and that she had to understand that.
She eventually came around and agreed to let me go to work. However, she still wants me to be with her 24/7 and doesn’t even let me go out with my friends or do anything on my own. She even gets angry if I’m working late and she feels like I’m not spending enough time with her.
I love my girlfriend and I understand that she wants to spend as much time with me as possible.
