I'm 20 and I have a 26 year old boyfriend. We've been together around 3 months, but have known each other a little for about 3 years as he lives down the road from me.
I haven't met anyone like him before, he's more special to me than other guys and I do love him. He says the same to me. I have the feeling this relationship could last a very long time as we clicked immediately.
Only problem being, he tends to get very edgy around the subject of exes, which is no big deal to me. Everybody has them, its the past. but when my ex is in the same room, he gets a cold sweat and acts like something is wrong.
Another thing is that I am moving to Bristol uni in about 3 months, which is 200miles away. He is staying at home for obvious reasons. He's lost a serious relationship to university before, but I am definately not the type to cheat or stray, and he says he knows this. But this morning when we woke up he said, "you'll never cheat on me, will you?" in a very serious tone, and was being very distant. Yet he says he trusts me. I said of course not, and he didnt say much until he realised he'd said the wrong thing and kind of upset me. I do everything for him, and tell him everyday how I feel about him. How can I stop him being so paranoid, other than just telling him I'm not like that?
He is also aware that I will be spending £60 a fortnight on train tickets to go home and visit, and allowing him to come down whenever he can. Hopefully we will be seeing each other every week or two, but I can tell he'll still get paranoid
