Quick question does he do the same for you? Or are you just saying this so you don't have to do something? Did he truly tell you not to do things and when you asked him to not do something and he refused to stop that? Like talk to a certain girl or not eat something or not smoke or drink.
If he doesn't do the same and you are really being told or threatened not to do or say certain things. Than yeah dump him.
If you are using him as an excuse knock the fuck off. You are making him look like a dick. Man up and say you are the one not wanting to do stuff.
I HAD a friend in highschool who did that. She had a great boyfriend and she say all the time. O my bf don't want me to go there. My bf don't want me to drink. My bf don't want me to talk to him or her.
Turned out it was all a lie. She was just using him as a shield.
My boyfriend thinks I should chase my dreams.
My boyfriend doesn't like it when I disrespect his mother.
My boyfriend doesn't want me to speak to the alleged drug dealer at number 54
I see no problem here.
Others have pointed out this isn’t a universal test- there are plenty of valid reasons. Let me be more clear though- a Boyfriend/Girlfriend is a partner- not a parent. Your decisions are your own, but you must realize they will also effect your partner too. So it comes down to wether they are helping you to be the person you want to be- or stopping you from being the person you want to be. If they are helping you be who you want- without being controlling- using emotional blackmail or withholding love, or trying to make you who THEY want you to be- That’s one thing. If they are holding you back or trying to change you to their ideals that’s a whole other thing. When it comes down to it, if you want to be self destructive or whatever, and they don’t want that in a partner, you should break up with each other. People change in relationships. People set boundaries and that is ok. But finding a person and then trying to make them who you want them to be instead of who they are is not.
