Hi, I know the title of my post seems desperate, but I really need help...
I haven't been feeling well with myself and the way I've been living for a while now. I have an OK job, but nothing that makes me feel completely satisfied and happy. I have tons of debts so that's pretty much why I haven't quit. My boyfriend's two years younger than me, he still goes to school and his friends and classes are a huge part of his life right now, it makes me feel very jealous but I understand it's part of his stage. He's leaving for two months this summer to attend a special course about 4 hours from where we live. Since I learned the news I felt miserable and I've been giving him an awful time.

He's at the end of his term so he has tons of school work, specially since his major involves a lot of handy work. I've been demanding all of his free time for me, calling him 24-7, crying, driving to see him as much as I can...mainly suffocating him. His reaction has been to pull away, he doesn't call me or text me like before, he spends his free time with his friends and he's lost his patience with me and is in a bad mood when we're together. He says he hates that I don't trust him and expect the worst from him. He also hates for me to get mad or cry when he decides to go out with his friends. He says he wants a girlfriend who trusts herself and trusts him, who's calm and positive and understanding. I think many of my relationship problems are based on the fact that my individual life doesn't satisfy me... I feel pretty depressed, I don't want to be like this anymore,I want to be calm and happy with myself, I don't want for my happiness to depend on him, I know it's my job to make myself happy but I've been demanding for him to do it.. I don't want to lose my boyfriend and I don't want to go crazy the two months he'll be gone... Tomorrow's our first anniversary and I really, really love this guy... Do you guys have any advice? Thanks for reading.
