Feeling more like a mom than a girlfriend 😩😤😡 Help! 🚨

My boyfriend is a couple years younger than me and we're both in college. We haven't been together long. He's had a hard life and has dealt with crappy family members. Luckily, he's nothing like them - he's a complete sweetheart, worships me, is totally faithful, and is [mostly] mature for his age. We have very similar political views and life goals. While he's not physically the type I'd normally go for (I'm a sucker for dark hair and eyes, he's light haired and light eyed), I do still find him attractive.

But lately I feel more like his mother than his girlfriend. Last semester, he was instructed by the school to change his class schedule for the fall to coincide better with their academic progress standards. He has had AT LEAST 2-3 months to do this; it is now less than a week until classes start and he STILL has not done it. I have had to ask and remind him time and time again and it still hasn't gotten done. When I do ask he either says "I'll do it later" or gets annoyed.

On top of this, I struggle to be attracted to him physically. He has been overweight for awhile but has definitely put on a few more pounds since we've been together and it's all in his stomach. When we have sex all I can focus on is the feeling of his tummy rubbing against mine and it's unpleasant. I know come the fall we will be doing a lot of dieting and working out together, so I know it's not permanent.

On top of this, he's obsessed with a certain outdoor-based video game so he's always running off with his friends to play on his phone... and that we barely go on dates and when we do, we barely talk. The silence is comfortable, sure... but I like to have stimulating conversation. I feel like I can't just have that with him, you know, like I can't have a deep conversation with him without some sort of outside promoting - an article on his phone, a news report on the tv, a plot point about a show we both like. When it's just the two of us, without that, we don't have the same deep convos.

Don't get me wrong, I love him. But I hate feeling like a parent or an authority figure. Every time I voice a concern he gets upset, he's a sensitive guy and I've seen him cry when I brought up an issue before. I don't want to hurt him or his feelings but I want to be his GIRLFRIEND, not his guidance counselor 😔

Signed,

A Frustrated "Girlfriend"
