Full Version: what do i do?
My boyfriend wont let me be the girl in our relationship. He always wants me to be the one to hold him, and he likes to cuddle more than I do. I really love him, and almost everything about him except this. How do I get him to let me be the sensitive needy one and he be the "guy"?
wait ... you're guy and he's a guy.
so, you're gay?
so, you're gay?
^You know dear, I was thinking the same thing.
But yea this could even happen in a normal relationship. And since I don't know what gender you are. I'm going to tell you something pretty borderline and overused.
You need to talk to him, he won't ever know how you feel until you talk to him. Just tell him that you in a relationship and relationships are 50/50 and you want to take turns and trading roles in the relationship.
In lamest terms, tell him like it is.

Well, her username is "Miss Murder" so I assume your a girl. And about the situation, let him know how you feel.
I think you should just start acting like the girl more when you see him. Tell him about your problems too and want to be cuddled more if thats what you truly want.
Well by her little avatar shes a guy to us.
=X
Just kidding of course.
Like I said in the other post, Act more like a girlfriend instead of the support system all the time.

i am a girl .lol.
tell him what's bothering you
Well if he's the silly kind of guy who likes to joke around, maybe you can start teasing him. If he leans on you and stuff, slightly push him off and laugh. Then YOU lean on him, and he might start liking it. Perhaps that'll work. If not, then follow everyone else's advices and talk to him!
I like to cuddle to, but I don't because I feel like I'm the guy and I can't do that... >.>
Girl, you need to tell him how you feel, talk about it, and come to a compromise. Many people feel as if they shouldn't have to explain to their partner what they want. THIS IS A FALICY. People don't have telekinesis. They CANNOT read minds. If you keep letting your boyfriend cuddle up with you, you keep being the "guy" in your relationship, you will go nowhere. YOU NEED TO TALK TO HIM ABOUT IT.
Next time he does it tell him, "Look, I don't mind if you cuddle up against me once in a while, but I need to cuddle up against you once in a while. It's not fair that I'm always doing this. I want to feel your arms around me. I feel like I'm always doing this for you. I feel like you should be doing this for me just as much as I do it for you. I feel very strongly about this. I feel like it's a problem, but I want you to know that I'm not angery. I feel that this is one of my needs, and I'm thankful that you have helped me to learn this about myself. I am willing to compromise. I don't mind cuddling with you, but we, at least, need to take turns."

totally agreed.
talk to him, he'll understand. But you're kinda lucky i know boys that hate cuddling and wouldn't cuddle or put their arms around you.
