nothing about you sounds stubborn here.
Instead your boyfriend sounds manipulative and you sound weak!
He is neither your father nor husband and you are supposed to be able to make your own decisions not live by ur boyfriend's standards!
Get him to loosen his grip,respect and trust your space,decisions and opinions!
Simple!

By giving him a break, let him know u re not confortable with his ideas, if he wants u to stop he should be ready to stop too, but my dear I don't know if I can stop social networks, so it all depend on u,

Re: Need An Honest Advice......am I Being Stubborn by swtdarling(f): 4:06pm On Apr 03, 2012
ur boyfriend is possessive,he wants to control every aspect of ur life.its best u move on with someone u more comfortable with.
Re: Need An Honest Advice......am I Being Stubborn by deniyor: 4:18pm On Apr 03, 2012
The guy is not right for you.
He is too controlling and possessive and will not leave room for your individuality.
Even a marriage shouldn't be that restrictive as long as you are posting very personal stuff of social networks.

It's in your best interest to sit down and have a very serious talk with him on how you wont let him control your life.
He is most likely going to accuse you of being stubborn, bad girlfriend etc which will lead to your inevitable action of breaking up with him.

PS the reason he is trying to get rid of your social networks is cos of the things he does there himself. He just doesn't trust you.

this isnt about who's right or wrong!
Tell him that all that i wrote above,tell him you dont want him breathing down your neck or controlling your every action.
Tell him all with a straight-face!
No time for nonsense!
If he isnt ready to change..get out of the relationship fast!

That is pure insecurity and selfishness...wise up gal
Re: Need An Honest Advice......am I Being Stubborn by dabrake(m): 5:33pm On Apr 03, 2012
@sine.com, do you have a low self-esteem, do you have this believe that if you break up with your guy, you won't find another guy(as in is he doing you a favour by 'degrading' himself to date you)? Can I assume your humility = stupidity? Can I also say that your meekness = weakness? . . . I'm just asking 'cause I find it difficult coming to terms that some people are experiencing what I will refer to as 21st-century/modified/upgraded version of slavery. He doesn't love you. There is no iota of his love for you. If I dey lie, make water carry me go.

I guess I'm afraid of startin a new relationship I just don't wana make a mistake and regret leaving him....the fear I had is that maybe I realy am stubborn bt now hearing even males commenting that he is insecure I can nw decide on what to do.

there is only ONE person you should listen to, and thats YOURSELF!

so the guy normally doesnt have a FB account? the guy normally doesnt go out to meet his friends etc? lol!!!
yes there is a difference between men and women, and it has absolutely NOTHING to do with FB and social networks.....and so far as i know, chatting with friends is not illegal....yet!

this man is simply insecure and want to keep you aaqy from anything that "could" led you astray.....it says a lot about how he thinks of you (or himself). i guess in his mind, someone might just send a friend request and he take you away from him, lol!

He actually wants to shaped u to a lady he can marry, guyz no send ladies wey dey no like o, were u dey go 4 nite u too? Stay with am nah...
Re: Need An Honest Advice......am I Being Stubborn by ralfo85(m): 7:01pm On Apr 07, 2012
He is only fooling himself. He is either controlling or insecure and doesn't trust you. That is bad for your relationship. You should talk to him and let him see that he can trust you, as you obviously trust him. But he doesn't have to make you his prisoner to achieve that. If that doesn't work, my dear time to leave the relationship!

But come ooo are you telling the whole story here? Have you done something that provoked this action from him?
Re: Need An Honest Advice......am I Being Stubborn by born2boink(m): 7:56pm On Apr 07, 2012
You will let all the unmarried nairaland ladies ruin your relationship for you, your boyfriend maybe jealous cause he love you and he is protecting you for his future interest,if he doesn't care about you, he will not watch over you
