Home More advice Love & Relationships

Okay...I have been seeing this guy 15 months and were very close...he even got on one knee and proposed and bought me a ring and says he wants to marry me and he even always tries on purpoouse to get me pregnant so I know he is not afraid of getting stuck with me. He says im beautiful and is everything he wants, im his dream girl and love of his life/soul mate and that he cant live or breathe without me, he says when I leave him its like he just dies and and when I leave him he says it makes him so depressed and sick and he cant handle it and he cries and cries and begs me to stay...he always even cries in front of me and everytime I even notion I may leave he gets all paranoid and worries. I love him a lot and to be honest, I want to spend the rest of my life with only him too and im also crazy for him . When we used to be on my space he got mad when a lot of guys flirted with me and he syas he hates when guys in public always stare at me too. I do modeling and I've been complimented on my looks a lot not only by him but both by him and also by a lot of guys... he says im beautiful all the time and that im gorgeous ,,,so then why is he always trying to control and critique me? And tell me how to dress and do my hair? Every other guy just flirts with me and obviously has no problem with me and it drives him crazy jelous but still he continues to critique me and make me feel bad!...hes controlling...so the thing I need to ask though is love enough for me to stay with him? Because I dont want to live a lie just because I love him and he loves me because lately he tries to critique me and tell me how to dress and wear my hair and control me and he has not even taken me home to meet his parents of friends in the almost 2 years together...I know hes not married because I know where he lives and have sent him mail there and all his mail is only addressed to him in his car, no ring marks and hes always with me all weekend and spends many nights with me at my house -every weekend were togetehr all night long like till 3 am! ! ...and we always spend many nights together and on days we dont, were always on the phone. I dont want to be with someone who is trying to change me or dont appreciate me ...everyone says im beautiful and he does too often so why does he try to control and change me now? And I talked to him and he says hes sorry and he is just having a problem with his personal self asteem and he apologised and said he was jelous of me that he thinks im better looking than him and that he just hates when other guys stare at me all the time...,,and this may be true because I noticed ever since we met, hes always trying to compete with me,,,is there such thing as your own boyfriend being jelous of you???...still, hes always trying to critique and control me and I had it! I told him it really was freaking me out and pushing me away and so he apologised and he even gave me a rose and said sorry for that recently but it seems he is still always trying to control me and critique me and tell me how to dress and do my hair and not only am I a model but im a fashion designer too !!! so everyone I know always says that I am not just beautiful but that I also have adorable style everyone always tells me that too,,,and I dont have this problem with anyone else... Every guy I know and every guy I pass on the street always just says im a knock out beauty! And he knows it too! But it hurts me that he takes me for granted and I know he knows he does,,,he admitted he takes me for granted. I am hurt too because why buy me a ring and propose when I havent met your folks? Whats the big secret? He keeps saying that its comming soon and I will meet them soon so we can go over wedding details but it never comes...I love him but I dont want to waist my time..sometiems I think maybe hes not married but lives with someone because im beautiful and theres no other reason not to take me to his mom,,,obviously if its true, she must know,,,all my stuff is always in his car and hes always sleeping over with me at my house ...I've asked and he says he lives only with his sister and no one else and that theres no one just me and that we are gonna be married and he just continues to try to get me pregnant and says he wants a future with me...im confused...so whats the big deal with his family? And why does he try to control me so much? Should I go or stay? What if I do meet his folks soon like he says and we get married...I already have the ring on..but what if I stay and later it just hurts me more if I have to leave one day? ...what should I do? I love him so much and weve been apart before and all we both did was cry and cry and be miserable without eachother and we both had a nervous break down over eachother when I broke it off with him last time. I know he loves me and I see the tears in his eyes,,,I feel bad when I leave him because he cries and I feel like a fool because alli do is miss him and cry and hate myself for leaving him when I do because I dont want to ...it hurts too much and everyday he just tells me to never leave him again because he cant handle that again, it was too painful for him too and he cries. He says im his everything. One last thing to mention, he is bipolar,,and since we got back together -aside from the controlling and him trying to take my identity away from me soemtimes ...and wondr why I haveent met his family but yet I am wearing his engagement ring and I may I may be pregnant with his kid,,, aside from all that ..he has really changed for the best...I've seen a lot more good than before so id hate to blow it now but besides that,,,I ask,,is love enough? I wanna stay because I love him and dont wanna regret leaving a man I adore still but is love enough when secretly I hate how he controls mea and tries to change me and take my identity and how he keeps his family life such a secret...a lot of other guys like me and ask me out but I am always sincere to him and honest ,,,I know he loves me and I love him...but what should I do? Leave or go? Is love alone enough to stay despite all this ? if I go with another guy who calls me then I feel sad inside because all I want is him and he says all he wanst is me too,,,but then on the other hand when im with him, I feel sick inside like im not being true to myself,,,so I ask you,,,is love enough to stay?
