weird bf

me and my bf were good but recently he started following half naked females on instagram (he deleted insta) but tells me i’m to clingy, doesn’t let me go through his phone and i asked him to go to a party with me he said he didn’t want to go w me or his friend who asked him as well but the day of the party he tells me he’s gonna go with said friend. what should i do? am i the problem or is he and when i try to talk it out he gets upset. he used to not be like this but it’s like a switch happened and now he’s indifferent towards me.

From a third person perspective, it's not really a healthy relationship right now. There's no doubt that he is being really suspicious. I mean, sure, you shouldn't check your bf's phone all the time, but the way he deleted his instagram once you found out suggests that he is beginning to distance himself with you. And by calling you clingy might be the first signs of gaslighting when you tried to check his phone. The fact that he would rather go with his friend than you to the party doesn't tell you something? I think he's afraid that you might found out something so that's why he doesn't want to have a conversation.

Try to find out something about him from his friends if he's not willing to talk.

Reminds me of my ex lol

He went from telling me nobody’s allowed to have you now, youre all mine ik im being selfish” to calling me clingy 😍and talking ab other girls including his exes and stuff

When I look back and reflect on the way I acted I genuinely cringe, he wasn’t worth my yime at all and your bf is not worth your time at all. He is acting weird i’d suggest you distance yourself and focus on yourself bc a relationship shouldnt make you feel like this

he didn’t delete it once i found out he deleted it a little while after bc it kept starting problems between us on my behalf and his too. and he said he went to the party with his friend bc he’s with me 24/7 (we live tg) and ofc i think it’s weird he didn’t wanna go w me but i js thought he didn’t wanna be seen w me but he said that wasn’t the case.

Yeah it was the same with my ex so I can empathise with you a lot, but honestly just mute him on every social media and distract yourself as much as you can that way if he tries contacting you to meet up or anything like that you won’t see the message straight away!! I literally jus started focusing on my a levels and went from a D to an A😭idk how old you are but distract yourself with something healthy

Of couse there's gonna be problems because he shouldn't look at half naked females on instagram in the first place. It's not your fault. I really think he's hiding something (that suddenly happened) from you because you said there was a 'switch' that turned him into a different person. I suggest you break up with him for your own good.

To put it straight you two need to address the problems head on and see if they can be resolved. If he doesn't like you anymore, move on and find someone else.
