He wants to talk to me about everything, be my best friend and everything, but he isn't being realistic because he can not be a human and be everything a person needs. When I'm sad about my family and lonely without friends, he wans me to not be sad because i have him. I just wish he was the type of boyfriend that would do whatever to make me happy, but if it is not what he thinks is right......he is totally against it. I feel as if I should be an exception to what he normally does. I think i should be the one that he does stuff for that he never ever would have done, but his head is too big for that.
First of all, everyone changes in college and with time. People grow apart. Some boyfriends are good for where you are at the time but not for later in life.
I'm not a member of a sorority yet, but I am almost 100% sure that not every sorority girl is single or dating fraternity guy...
The pressure he seemingly puts on you is quite a bit. A fourth job? Ouch in my opinion, and I use to have a boyfriend just like that.
I choose this post because well read it. If it was your best friend saying that what would you say to her?
One person cannot be everything, that is why you have family and friends. If someone is everything in a relationship, the couple typically ends up being unhappy.
Also, he should be making YOU happy! The things that make him happy don't need always make you happy. My boyfriend obsesses about cars, including wheel type and tires (?) I like to make lists and exercises. He thinks my lists are weird but he wouldn't make me stop because he knows it helps. I wouldn't make him stop looking at tire types and rims because I know it clears his mind.

Basically in the end: This guy sounds unhealthy! Would you let your best friend (not your boyfriend, choose a different one) date someone like this?
