You are still so young with so much growing up and experiencing life to do... Don't force something that's not there with your current boyfriend.

I've been with the same guy since I was 16. I am 20 now.
I have started to like someone else.
4 years, especially 4 years from being a teenager, to a young adult is a huge jump, you've changed, your feelings are going to change, liking someone else woudl be normal.

I have some weird reasons on to why I don't want to leave my boyfriend but I do want to leave him, I need some help from you guys.
~Reasons why I feel like I cant leave my boyfriend~
My love and attatchment for my boyfriend is strong, I'm afraid to move on and start something new(afraid of change).
Change is good. It makes you open your eyes and see things differently and prevents you from getting into a rut. Think of it as getting your hair cut. Long hair might be nice, but getting all the ratty ends trimmed off are healthy for your hair.
Quote:
I will miss him and his family(3 little nieces involved).
Not a good reason to stay with someone... but there's no reason why you coudln't stay friends
Quote:
I don't want him to talk badly about me if I leave him.
Why would he do that? Why would you stay with someone who might talk trash about you. If you think he'd say bad things, then you should run away fast, now, because it'd mean he's an immature ass.
Quote:
I don't want to lose contact with him.
You can like him as person, but not be interested in him romantically
Quote:
We live together, I'd have to move out(I have friends I can move in with)
OK - so what's the problem
Quote:
Are cell phones share the same plan.
No offence, but stupid reason... there are other cell phone companies. At your age you can get a different cell phone

Quote:
Okay so the new Guy has somethings I am worried about too, thats why I have not made up my mind yet.
You don't have to settle for either one-- have some fun for a while

Quote:
The new guy is 19 so he's like 6 years younger then my boyfriend(thats just different)
What are you looking for from him?
Quote:
The new guy is nicer and my girl friends like him more. My parents will like him more.
Sounds like a good endorsement, but the only opnion that matters is yours

Quote:
I am afraid to leave my boyfriend, because he is Financially Stable. He went to school got his degrees and has a good job.
The new guy is just like me young and working minimum wage.
You won't be working minimum wage jobs forever, and you should not rely on someone else for your financial support, you should be relying on yourself. DOn't settle for the current boyfriend because you don't think you can make it on your own -- you will never be completely happy otherwise
