I have always been sensitive and quick to cry, and I know that crying all the time CAN get on someones nerves, I have been with my boyfriend for about 7 months. I love him and we had an instant connection, but sometimes I feel like I'm not enough for him. It seems I'm always doing something wrong, calling to much, not enough things like that, I would never cheat on him although I get accused a lot.

He has 2 different personalities, one is so sweet and loving, and his other is very mean and angry, I know he has issues and so thats why I put up with his "mean" side, he always apologizes and insures me that he didn't mean anything he was just mad, most of the time I did nothing to make him mad, hes upset at other people, I usually cry when hes being mean to me, and this just makes it worse.

So am I too sensitive, how can I learn to control this emotion??? I need to learn to stand up for myself and stop letting people walk on me, I don't want to be known as weak.. I'm independent and strong, I speak my mind, but for some reason when it comes to relationships I crumble, and I do everything I can to keep him happy, even if it means I'm unhappy.

Im sorry to say it, but it sounds like you are in the wrong relationship. You mention several red flags...being accused of having affairs, him being angry at you most of the time, you trying to make him happy at your own expense. these are hallmarks of an emotionally abusive relationship. being an overly sensitive person just makes it harder for you to endure. in any relationship, you should be gaining more positives than negatives to stay in that relationship. are you? try putting a pro/con list together and see if this is where you really want to be. you should be putting your happiness first. take care.
