I really wish he'd stop getting mad at me for having other friends. He says the way he treats me is not okay and that he shouldn't feel so jealous and angry at me, yet he continues to do it. I feel like I'm going insane, maybe I'm a bad friend. I feel like everyone would point a finger at me and judge me for lying to him about going to sleep just so I can be alone for some time, because he's always talking to me and gets mad if I don't.

I can see how tough this situation is for you. It must be really frustrating to deal with his jealousy, especially when you’re just trying to have your own space and maintain other friendships.

I hear you saying that you feel like you’re going insane and questioning yourself as a friend, which is a lot to carry. It’s understandable to feel overwhelmed when you’re trying to balance your needs with someone else’s emotions.

And remember, you’re not a bad friend for wanting your own space.
