I haev been in a relationship with my boyfriend for a year and two months now. We have had our share of arguements, just like everyone else. I almost even left him once. Of coarse, I am suffering the reprocussions from that now (he thinks I am going to leave him any minute now). The biggest problem is that he wont listen to me when I tell him that I want to stay with him. We recently bought a car together. It is in his name, because it is his, but I am helping him pay for it. He was a bit down after buying said car (actually, it was a truck), but then he got all excited and started talking about how we should start looking for a house, one that is bigger than the place we have now, then in a couple of years I can have my own brand new car and everything. Basically, he started talking about the future.

One night, he decided he was sick of the place we are living in now (it is too small), and he got in the truck with me, and we drove around looking for houses for sale. I just sat in the passenger seat and wrote down phone numbers and addresses- no big deal. The next day when I asked about the numbers ("Hey, are you gonna call them ,or do you want me to?), he freaked out and started telling me that I was forcing his to get a house, and that everything he does is because I force him to. Said that the only reson he bought the truck was because I forced him to, and now its gonna ruin his life. He started telling me that Im gonna leave him with the payments, and its gonna get reposessed and ruin his credit, therefore ruining his life. THEN he went on to say that by 'forcing' him to buy the house (in which, there isnt even a house yet, theres just a bunch of numbers written on a piece of paper), I was ruining his life even more because now he is hypothetically going to go bankrupt.

He says this over and over, and it has gotten to the point where I have told him that I cant handle it anymore. His negative attitude towards this whole thing has made he want to hide in a corner and just stop talking. I told him that if he would just rather stay where we are, then thats fine with me. Then he says he wants to rent a house, but not for over $550 a month. Thats not realistic!!! I did some reasearch, showed him examples, then he tryed to say that I was making him forget about renting so that he would buy a house!! I could never buy one myself, or else I would (my credit is horrible- his is impeccable). All I really want to do is start loking now, so that when we are ready, we know exactly what we want and exactly what we need to do to acheive it. He doesnt get it and starts to freak out (and again, accuse me of wanting to leave him, and of forcing him to do everything that he does.)

What should I do?!?! I just cant take it anymore.. I feel like Im going to explode!!!

~Is it ever really THAT bad??
