Why does my boyfriend want to hang out so much?

Ok well first off, my boyfriend and I have been dating 5 months and I’m a senior in high school and he is a junior. I wake up at 5:30 everyday and have school until 2:20. He wakes up at 7 and gets out at 3. I also have a job and work at least 30 hours a week on top of school, so I am usually worn out. He has a job but doesnt work often. He usually works once every three weeks. He is constantly texting me and if I dont answer quick enough for him he starts sending double texts which really annoys me and I have talked to him about it but he still doesnt get it. For the past 5 months we have not gone a day without texting and he isnt bothered by it, but I am. Also when I’m driving he thinks that means we need to talk on the phone. He has to know where I am 24/7 and always wants to hang out and makes me feel guilty if I just want to spend time to myself or hang out with my friends. This week I only had monday and wednesday off and he came over from 3-7 on monday and is coming over tomorrow. He doesnt really ask he just says what are we doing and if I say I cant hang out he gets upset and thinks I put my friends before him. Also, if I fall asleep when I am with him he gets sooo mad!! He also hates that I never want to do anything physical, but I can’t help it, I am always worn out and I am so grouchy now… What do I do? I dont want to break up with him but I want him to understand and hang out with his friends… I have talked to him about it but he still doesnt see where I am coming from

Well, I’d say that he should hang out with his friends more often, maybe then you’ll have some time to rest. It’s hard to balance your time with your boyfriend and your friends, you just have to find the right amount. And yes, friends do always come before boyfriends, it should also be the same for guys :) Maybe he hangs around you so much because he’s afraid you’ll abandon him, and maybe he thinks that if you don’t see him a lot, you’ll start hating him, but I can see it’s not doing so much good D: Try to hint to him that his friends might want some time with him as well, and that your a bit tired sometimes. If he persists, then you might have to sit down and talk like adults :/ Talking can cure any problem :) I hope I helped ^.^
