Hello everyone :] I'm new here and was reading the advice given out. Looks like you all give the best advice around, so I thought I would give it a try.
I'm 20 yrs old, been with my boyfriend for 2 yrs. We've spent everyday together for the past year, so we're pretty close. I know it's impossible for him to be cheating because I trust him, and he is always by my side except when at work. We have a long relationship history and have overcome so many things. I know he loves me. Although he can be overprotective and gets jealous so easily :| We're in a long distance relationship.
Recently it's all been trouble. We're supposed to meet in the summer, around June. Anytime I mention which day, or early planning to save money he blows it off and acts like he doesn't care. I told him how that makes me feel but each time I do he says I'm "rambling" or he moans and says "not this again" like it's a bother. I'm just trying to express my feelings. He still doesn't want to give each other our addresses. When we first got together, I didn't want to exchange addresses because I didn't want to rush into anything, so I took it slow. Now it seems he just flipped it on me and says he can't give me his address. He still won't tell his mom (he lives with her) about me. When I bring up this, meeting each other, or the addresses he says I'm rushing into things. With his previous girlfriend he wanted to introduce her to his mom only six months into their relationship. What should I do about all of this? It seems if I express any of this to him he gets mad and says I'm trying to start a fight, or he simply avoids it. I'm at a complete loss anymore. Am I over-exaggerating or is there something happening here?

Wait, what? You have been with someone for two years but don't know the home address? Did I read that right? How were you together everyday then?

I'm confused - you've spent everyday together and he's always by your side but you have a long distance relationship? That doesn't add up.

Either way- sounds like he's just not that into you. You're only 20. Find someone better who wants to share their address with you.

This ^^^.

I'm sorry, but you may think he's your boyfriend, but I don't believe he feels that he is.

I think you need to take a step back an read what you yourself wrote - It really speaks volumes.

We talk on the phone as soon as he comes home from work all the way til about three am.
Sorry for not making that clear.
I've mentioned breaking up to him before a few months go, and that was something he definitely didn't want. He cried and shaped up and said he didn't want to lose me.

Sounds like he just likes the convenience of you on a computer. Easy on, easy off. No muss, no fuss.

I hope you can meet someone else near where you live in real life.

Something that I find odd, is that you both have been in a "relationship" for two years, and have not exchanged address`s?
Tell him that you want to come and see him, and meet his Mom.
To me, it sounds like he is brushing you off for some reason.
If he cares for you as much as you say, then he should understand where you are coming from. Good luck!

Talking on the phone from what time, to what time? Sounds to me like he already has someone at home and that is why you don't have his address.

I know right?
I thought it was because I wouldnt give him my address early in the relationship. He's the type of guy that does the "eye for an eye" thing, to pretty much everyone he knows. He was willing to give it to me back then, saying I just had to ask for it, but I didnt want to rush cause we just met.
I'll be sure to mention this to him :] Thanks.

From about 3pm to 3am or later. So we talk pretty much all day. He lives with his mom still; he's just 22.
