    Why is he acting like this?

    I really need someone to listen to me right now. I am twenty years old I finished school early so I went straight into college before i was seventeen. Well my major was massage therapy. I finished and now i'm working for this place I hate to be at. I get unwanted attention from guys and it has gone far to the point i actually had a few touch me I hate doing it but I feel as if i'm stuck there because I am in over my head on my student loans. So until i get them paid of I'm sticking to it. A couple of weeks ago one of my old teachers offered me a TA position but I have to undergo three interviews. One done by the leader of the department, one by him and the last one done by the students. I passed the first two I guess you can say and tonite I have the last one. My teacher gave me a warning this will be the hardest one because i have to basically teach these kids who are older than me, gain there respect and basically feed them information. He was stressing to me this will be the hardest one and I have been a mess these last few days stressing about my lesson plans practicing what to say and answering any possible questions that might come about. I believe this is my ticket out of my problem. The thing is I have been noticing my boyfriend attitude changing. From the beginning he was 1000% behind me and now he isnt towards the end. I feel as if he should support me becuase i have for everything he has done. Last nite I was trying to get him to help me by pretending to be a student. He told me why bother? i said what? he goes nothing and walks away. now he wont talk to me. Did he only support me from the beginning because he didnt think I would make it this far?

    go for it

    is your boyfriend jealous because you may be advancing your career beyond what he is capable of? GO FOR IT..do not let him ruin for you what is a great opportunity..not to be negetive, but maybe out of all this you will see what kind of a man he is; for good or bad.. (p.s.) i hope this message gets to you in time because i for one am pulling for you and praying that you will have peace and confidence during your interview,,GOOD LUCK

      Good luck with your interviews!
      But I have to ask, do you think you're maybe ignoring him? Obviously, you have something important which you NEED time and space to work on for the betterment of your life, but maybe something has gone wrong with him that you aren't noticing? Put yourself in his position. Ask him what is wrong.
      Of course, Dr. Mansview could be COMPLETELY right and he could just be a negative person trying to bring you down. I'm just giving him the benefit of the doubt ... try to talk to him before you get too angry.
      Let us know how the last interview goes

          Think Positive!

          Hey SimplyMe,

          I know my post is probably too late, but you go right in there for that last part of your interview!

          If your b/f is acting a fool, then forget about him. He definitely is acting like a spoiled little baby. If he's not mature enough to wish you well, then you don't need him. He probably thinks you're leaving him behind.

          I hope you got the job... I know your teacher is checking to see how you'll handle the pressure, but you'll be ok. Don't let anyone else tell you different.

            hey Jubes you pretty much said the same thing that i did only more eloquently and with better punctuation..but that's ok, my point is that we both agree that he just may be trying to hinder simplyme's growth..since we don't really have an idea of their relationship together, my thought on this matter in a nut shell is this: boyfriends may come and go, but this is a chance that could forever alter your career..p.s. how are you doing simplyme; let us know for better or worse, we're thinking about you..

              LOL .... Sorry about that, Doc!
              I hope she lets us know what happened. I think she's got a great opportunity there and I believe she seized it!

                Hey guys sorry it has been a while I have been trying to get my life back on track. For an update I didnt get the job. I couldnt control the class the way I wanted. I guess I forgot how much guys can be perverted and immature. I tried to stand my ground the best way I could or knew how guess it didnt work. It got bad to the point my teacher had to step in. Than the director told me he didnt think I had enough experience for the job. So for a while I felt like my dreams and hopes were crushed. My relationship is outta wack.. My life is falling apart. I know I may be looked down on this but I partied all weekend i thought I deserved it. I really didnt see my boyfirend because he said he wanted his space so i gave it to him. I met this guy there that I have always envied him sinced high school because he lives in the moment hes a thrill seeker and is real chill about life. I wanted to be like him instead of a stressed out little gurl. I guess he rubbed off on me because right now at this moment I feel like if my relationship ends than I guess it wasnt ment to be, and out there is someone who is ment for me. I know it will hurt and I know it will take time, but I will live. As for the job I guess it wasnt my time but I will sooner or later find the right job for me I just need to keep my head high and live my life.
