Tell him that what websites or message boards you visit are you're own buisness.

Are you a girl or a guy?

Well you could start by asking exactly what he doesn't like about it and why it makes him so insecure. If he's thats insecure that he needs to monitor what websites you go on then why is he worth it? He behavious is just sad.

He doesn't see it like that, he also reads my diary now when he never used to before.

He counts TSR usage as 'cheating on him'. Yes, other poster, I'm a girl :rolleyes:

His insecurity is his problem not yours, if he doesn't like it then he tell him to get on his bike.
I don't think I would chose a chat room over someone I love personally...

You can always come back here if you break up later for other reasons. But reading your diary? Now THAT'S feckin rude - do you let him?!

Sorry :redface: Forgive me if I'm wrong but I remember seeing a thread made by you (?) the other week asking something like "is this gay?" and explaining a situation with you and a guy mate.

Nevermind :eek:

Thankyou :wink: :smile:

He says that he doesn't like TSR (well, firstly he's taken the piss of this site, you should've seen him y/day) and thinks 'losers' use it (so there's the feeling of *embarrassment* that his GF is so sad she uses an internet forum sometimes to talk to people). But I think the main reason he hates it is because he doesn't know what I'm doing on here, and I could be talking to other GUYS :eek:

bloody hell..how old are you?
If he invades your privacy like this because he's insecure then it's only going to get worse over time. Reassure him and have a long talk with him. If that doesn't work then get rid of him. I used to have a boyfriend who did the same thing and they can become very scarily obsessive.

In my early 20s. He's in his mid to late 20s.

Wow, he sounds just like my ex. Except when I broke up with him he joined TSR and 'stalked' me. He would ring me up and ask me why I posted things and who was I talking to. Very bizarre behaviour.

Basically he is very insecure about himself and your relationship and he doesn't like you having an interest that he doesn't understand.

Wow, but that's ridiculous! Tell him to get over himself! This board actually has a purpose and all, it's not like you're on some geeky computer game forum all the time, losing your sense for reality or something. I bet he's looked at porn online before, which ould be way more "threatening" to a relationship imo. This board really isn't anything to be upset about !! He should definitely respect it as part of your privacy.

Half the world's population is male, does he not expect you to speak to them at all?

The difference is, if it is in real-life, he's more likely to know about it. This is different, uncharted territory in his opinion and he hates it. The thing is, I love him and would never do anything to betray him at all, but he sees me using TSR as a form of 'cheating' on him :frown:

When I'm not, most of the time I'm trying to get my homework done :rolleyes:

Do you come on here a lot, it might be a bit annoying for him if you are constantly on here instead of spending time with him. He sounds a bit soft tbh saying that losers come on here, its up to you what you do with your time don't let him control you.
Sounds like an insecure, nosey, posessive freak to me. Yes, overall he might be lovely, but this is a very dark and worrying side. Not specifically about TSR, but his overall mistrust of you.

*Jaded
:eek: If my boyfriend read my diary, really serious words would be had. That is an absolute outrage and you drop it in so casually. That would seriously bother me, regardless of the fact I would have nothing incriminating in it. He has to trust you and respect your privacy. Seriously how can you not mind that he's acting so jealous and protective? Threatening to dump you over an internet forum is a major over-reaction to a non-existant problem.

I have to ask..have you ever cheated or given him any reason to act so jealous? If not then his behaviour is worrying and very paranoid. He sounds pretty insecure. Go to couples counselling or similar and nip this problem in the bud now. Don't ignore it and if he won't listen to reason (and he desn't sound very reasonable to me) then have a counsellor there to mediate and make him listen and talk about his fears calmly.

As for the forum use. Are you always on TSR or do you go on once a day or so? I could understand being a bit fed up if my partner was always online or was chosing to spend time on a forum rather than with me. But dumping someone over it..this guy sounds about 12, not mid twenties.
I think you should find someone else.

The problem is not TSR, the problem is him.

Reading through your diary? Crap, you have parents for that.

Let me guess, you don't have much of a social life because of him.
