Why can you do about a boyfriend who likes to do EVERYTHING with you?
Ok, this is a common problem that keeps coming up all the time here at AskMattandTamsen, so you've been dating a guy for about two months, you like hanging out but you have some concerns about your time together. Seems he literally wants to do everything with you [shopping, spa, gym]. Your family and friends think it’s sweet, but you feel like you don’t have time for yourself.
The concern is your boyfriend is turning into your “Gal Pal,” and if you don’t do something fast, you are going to be forced to take him to the very next “girl’s night out.”
There are a few reasons guys develop the “Gal Pal” syndrome...
1. He may truly enjoy every moment spent basking in your glow.
2. He may like shopping malls and spas [though we have met few men who fall into this category].
3. He may be very jealous and not trust you quite yet.
Whatever the case, we feel your pain, check out some suggestions to wean him off that Friday facial he is presently adoring.
1. It’s still a bit soon to be giving him your hourly schedule. Take the time you need and then call him when you are free.
2. Let him know that spending too much time together isn’t good for you. Yes, it may be harsh…but better now than later.
3. If you have plans later in the evening, tell him you just want to get all pretty for him and then remind him you will be seeing him later. [giving him something to look forward to].
