Not my girlfriend?
I've been with my boyfriend for two years now and it hurts that he still won't call me his girlfriend in public - like, we're at family gatherings or out with friends and he just introduces me as 'Ines'... no title, no nothing. It feels like he's ashamed of me or something. I try to talk to him about it but he just says I'm being too sensitive - that it doesn't matter what others think. But to me, it does matter - love is not love without passion and commitment, right? I want to feel like I'm a part of his life, like we're in this together. My family's always asking when we're gonna take the next step and I don't know what to tell them - it's embarrassing. I love him, but this is really getting to me...
