" I&amp;#039;ve been with my guy for more than two years, and we recently moved to a new city. I have made new friends and want to go out, but he&amp;#039;s a total homebody. If I drag him along, he&amp;#039;s in a bad mood, and if I leave him behind, I get a guilt trip. He has not made new friends and is so critical of other people, I wonder if he ever will. How do I stop feeling like a prisoner without ruining our otherwise great relationship? A massive life change like moving to a new city can be exciting for one person but terrifying for another. Your boyfriend doesn&amp;#039;t have his friends and family to make him feel secure. And so, unlike you, he may need some time to adjust.  However, big changes can also shine a glaring spotlight on facets of a person you might not have noticed before. Maybe you were so blinded by love, you didn&amp;#039;t realize that you were, in fact, dating Shrek. So instead of forcing him to socialize with your friends, make new friends as a twosome. If he has hobbies &amp;amp;#151; Dungeons and Dragons, I&amp;#039;m guessing &amp;amp;#151; suggest joining a club or team together.  Your guy can&amp;#039;t have it both ways. Either he responds to your thoughtful suggestions to socialize more or he lets you do your own thing without making you feel bad about it. And I&amp;#039;m sorry to say that if things don&amp;#039;t change, you&amp;#039;re kidding yourself by calling it a relationship. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
