Dear Communication Expert.
I'm having a problem in my relationship.I love spending time with my boyfriend Max.We have fun together,he's really nice,and I really like him.However,I don't want to be with him all of the time.I like doing my own thing too.My friends say this is weird and that if I love Max,I should want to be with him as much as possible.Max also seems hurt when I say I want time alone.Right now,I'm just giving in and spending most of my time with him because it seems like the right thing to do;but I'm not happy.I don't want to break up with Max,but I also don't want him to be my whole life.Is something wrong with me? Can I fix this problem?
Thank you!
