me and my boyfriend have been going out for a month and a half and we're in love. we hung out a lot when we were still friends. but then we got together and then we had 2 weeks off school and in those 2 weeks we hung out constantly. then we went back to school and continue to hang out a lot. i've been sleeping and showering at his house and i have a toothbrush at his house and i only stop by my own house to change clothes. my parents dont care and his parents dont care. in the past 10 days since we've started we've had sex 21 times. my friend said we need to hang out less before we start getting sick of eachother. he said he'll never get sick of me and if he everneeds space he'll tell me. but i dont want either of us to ever get to that point. but i love him and he loves me and i miss him when we're not together. how much should i be hanging out with him?

well i think its always a good idea to have time for yourself. i think your friend has a point. my gf and i don't see eachother everyday (although thats not by choice) but it works well for me because i can still be there for my other friends and still hang out with them too. i think its great that you connect so well with him and you feel so strongly for eachother but i also think its good to have time for yourself and other friends. but what works for me may not work for you, so maybe if you wanted to do this, you could maybe trial it a couple of times and see if spending some time apart, whether its a few hours or a day or whatever, works for you.
