I did keep my boyfriend. We have different goals and ways we want to spend our lives. I couldn't see how he had space in his life with all the plans he had. However, I decided to say and do what is important to me, let him do the same, and to see where we end up. I found I was glaring a lot and being cool when I didn't like his behavior, and changing my behavior when he looked hurt. I would like to try and get along with the idea that both of us can deal with our own insecurities, discomfort.
