Relationship advice!?!?!?

I got with my current boyfriend, Tommy last December, so we've been together for almost 1 year. We're both 17 but he's two weeks older than I am. I moved in with him and his family because my mom and dad pretty much want to travel the world or whatever, so they gave me a choice to live with Tommy's family. I'm going to be 18 in 5 months anyway, so we're almost ready to think about getting room mates and move out into a cheap place. He works a really good job and makes pretty good money almost $1,800 a month working under the table with his grandpa we have no bills so we could totally move out. And this is all great. I have a great life and a great family and boyfriend that love me. I have no job or driver's license and I am home schooled, but I take advanced classes and have straight A's in school. I graduate this January. And Tommy said I don't need a job until I turn 18 anyway. And its really hard to find work when you don't have a car.


Anyway, that's the whole story it sounds like I have a pretty great life.


But for some reason I feel bored, and useless, like everybody else is going places and I'm not. I rarely leave the house, and I am buried in books half the time.


And the worst part is, I think I'm getting bored of my boyfriend


and I feel terrible.


We're 17 and he's talking about getting married and spending our lives together, and he's reallllllllly jealous so I can't even have any guy friends or talk to another guy.


(Let the record show that I'm not a cheater, seriously I'm not)


But after him and his family took me in, and he provided for me, I feel so terrible just leaving.


Sometimes I cry myself to sleep because I don't do what he does and I don't have friends or a life for that matter. I've tried to be strong, but I just feel myself breaking down.





My question is... do you think if I go off on my own and get a job for myself I might learn to be my own person and be better off?


Or should I stay with him because he is my security?


Am I just using him? I really do love him. I just don't know.Relationship advice!?!?!?
Well as he is your security, you feel as though you do not have to do anything in order to get what you want.





However, you are bored of it and want to experience life as it is.





Why not compromise, it seems like you really love him so why not just get your own job but stay with him and do your own thing once and a while. If he is a really jealous person, then maybe you can talk to him about just you and some girls going out sometime.
