i lied :O Options

[Heathasm]

come to think of it i cant think of a time in the past year and a half(how long we've been together) that i've actually ~lied~ about where i was and what i was doing to my bf. now, we live together and consider our relationship pretty serious but one thing ive never really gotton over about him is that he's so demanding of all my time. today my best friend and i wanted to go out to eat and just chill w/no bfs and i knew the only way i would be able to go without starting a huge fight was to lie and say i was staying late at work (lol so obvious but he believed me). after i said i was staying late he said that he was sad we wouldnt be able to spend much time together before having to goto sleep but it was ~ok~ because i was working aka making the mulah. i actually feel really bad about lying though ~_~ which is annoying but i just dont see any other way for me to peacefully hang out with my friend like that so short notice and what not.

anyway if any one has a better approach pls enlighten me or do you do similar things with your bf/gf?

Doesn't he need some his "alone time," too?

Like others have said, talk to your boyfriend seriously about this. Tell him you two cannot be together ALL the time. That's actually unhealthy for a relationship. He needs to accept the fact that you enjoy the company of your friends and it's not his call to whether you get to see them or not.

If my boyfriend had a problem with my best friend, I'd still hang out with her. They don't like each other. So what? You still have the right to see her whenever you like.
