My bf is great and he's so sweet. But sometimes i feel like he's TOO korny (im 18 and he's 16 incase that has anything to do with it). Like when we're at the movie theaters he'll wisper in my ear "i love my baby" and im like uuhhh can you just watch the movie please and it almost irritates me that he does stuff like that. I mean im the average girl and i like sweet guys too but how do you know when he's just SMOTHERING you? If i ever tell him to not cuddle with me or to just lay off a little and give me space he gets offended and pissed off. Do i really need space from being smothered or am i over reacting?

You're not overreacting, because you just don't like that stuff. Period. But try and understand why he does it: he thinks he's being sweet, and he's trying to show you how much he cares about you. Try having a serious talk with him about how you feel uncomfortable with him doing stuff like that. If he gets offended...well, he might just need to grow up a bit if he can't have a serious conversation about your relationship without getting defensive. Just tell him that you do appreciate how sweet he is, and that he likes to make you feel special, but sometimes it's just a little too serious for you, and you don't feel comfortable with it. He should respect you enough to respect your space and your boundaries. If he doesn't--well, that's kind of a different question...

You may be over reacting there are a lot of guys out there that won't treat you like you deserve that. So when a sweet guy comes along I would hold on to him. Saying that if it really bothers you should talk to him and let him know your feelings on everything. Emotions are a good thing to show but you have to do what is right for you and what you feel comfortable with.

it sounds like u do not love this guy
it sounds like u feel sorry 4 him
if that is the case then u should break it off with him before it gets any harder
how long have u been with him?
it doesnt really matter
but you need someone more mature
ask yourself
1. did you act like this when u first got 2gether with him
2. can u see yourself with him forever
3. do you feel sorry for him
4. what is it that you love about him
5. are u in love with him
your answers will tell you what to do

Everyone needs space! I think it is fine to be honest, if he doesn't like it then I would pass--maybe then he'd get the picture. I am sure that him being 16 has a lot to do with it...he's with a hot "older" woman and his hormones are in overdrive!!! Just tell him the truth and be nice about it, hopefully he will understand. Good luck :)

Just explain to him that you like him a lot but if you don't get some space then he'll figure out how nasty it can get inside your personal space. You're not overreacting though, just make sure to say something about it...And read The Dating Game.(Books) There's a similar situation in it.

You really should appreciete him more now! You are lucky to have somebody who thinks so much of you and wants to be with you that much. If it is too smothering for you and you really dont like it, talk to him about it, but I think you are taking him for granted, he sounds like a great guy. You dont want to lose him because you didnt appreciate him enough!

Attention is nice but being smothered is annoying. If you feel like he is smothering you, then tell him. Some guys are way to touchy-feely and clingy, that is down right annoying.

i think you should sit down and talk to him. tell him how you feel. he may seem immature, but hes just trying to let you know he likes/loves you the only way he knows how. cut the poor guy a break.
