Im sorta dating this older guy, I spent a week with him in person five months ago. When he came to visit my family. Before he came we barely ever talked. Things happened way too fast that week. And when he went back home we were kinda offical. I have given all of me to him and its not enough. He always tells me what Im doing wrong, me and him seem impossible. Im tired of trying, Im tired of hurting. Tonight he said I didnt text him enough today and the next time I dont talk to him enough he'll assume Im breaking up with him. Half of me wants be with him forever, and the other half wants to start over, and build a friendship first and start from there. I dont want to lose him though..but we're both hurting. And its just not working. What should I do? :(

Well... Firstly he needs to accept that you are who you are, if your giving it your best then that's all you can give.
Secondly, I don't see you as doing anything wrong. Just my opinion.
He should open his eyes and see you for who you are and not who he wants you to be, you can't talk to him 24/7, if you did he'd get sick of you.
It's your choice, I'm not going to tell you to dump him or stay with him.
Just do what you feel is right and be happy.
It's not love if your miserable.

He seems as if he doesn't really care about your needs. I know that you really love this person. You shouldn't have to change for a guy at all. You should just be yourself. He should love you for you.
You need to talk to him about the way you feel. If you just let it go, he is going to assume that it's alright for him to control you all day everyday.
Starting over might be a good idea. If you have to be just friends with him, there is nothing wrong with that.

I agree with the whole starting over idea. According to what ive read, i personally think hes a little too clingy, but thats just me. He cant expect you to be there 24/7 since you guys dont even live near each other. Or maybe you guys should try having a break with each other and see how things go. If you find someone else and you are still thinking of the old guy, then try making the old relationship work. If you really like this other person (if you do find someone else) then i say just stay friends with the old guy. Thats what i would do, but it all depends on you. goodluck :]

I'm going to try and talk to him about how I'm feeling..because I really do love him but I'm just not happy. Thank you guys for all of the advice, I'm going to do something to fix this, whether I stay with him or not. I think if I'm dating someone I should feel completely comfortable talking to them about everything, but I definitely don't with him, because I'm afraid of how he'll react. I have to talk to him about this though, even though it's going to hurt.
