youre in a relationship and youre focusing on other areas in your life as well as him/her but you don't make him/her your main focus Then him/her actually gets angry at you for not making them your whole world It annoys me when people expect me not to have a life outside of the relationship Does this annoy anyone else?
I wouldnt say it annoys me....maybe makes me feel a little trapped sometimes....but if the other person in insecure....we would have to work at that....maybe include that person in something that i normally wouldnt do.....encourage them to get their own interests without making them feel left out.......but i wouldnt give in to their demands..........we all need a life outside of a relationship.........
you always have to make time for yourself and your friends in a relationship...girls need girls nights as well as guys :) That's what makes the relationship healthy...finding a balance in it all that you are both happy with...
It is a fine balancing act......I work full time, go to school full time and have a full time, live in boyfriend....He knows I love him and he doesn't question my order of priorities....it is what it is....
But to answer your question....that would anoy me if somebody was so demanding of my time, and tried to make me feel guilty for having other important things in my life besides him. What Lova said, insecurities.....that's a key factor there.

Life should never revolved round one person. And any one who expects it is insecure. I have many people in my life who i love and enjoy being with . I would expect my partner to respect my independence

Exactly! I get annoyed when guys claim they want to meet me but when something comes up with my kids or my aunt that I take care of, they always, I mean always, tell me that I need to let go of some of my responsibilities and take time for me! After stating that..do they really think they have a chance

The worst is when they try to tell you "oh my friend and his girlfriend see each other at least 3 times a day" just because his friend & his friend's girlfriend are super clingy that doesnt mean its normal and thats not how every relationship should be
