I am going to try and make this story as short as possible.
I'm from Canada, I moved to Boston for graduate school to be closer to my boyfriend who is from here, we live together now. I miss my friends and my family back at home and I find myself getting homesick sometimes. I find myself doing a lot for him, I drive him to work every day and pick him up because he recently lost his car and can't afford to get a new one right now, I also lent him some money for fix his now borken car (again), I clean up, do the laundry, just little things but I find myself doing way more than he does.
I don't want to paint a bad picture for him because he really is great in other ways, i.e. when he isn't hard on cash he picks up the bill, and when he is home he will cook dinner. He spends a lot of his free time with me, and that's probably because we live together lol, its where he has to come home to sleep. I just don't have friends here like I do back at home and the people from my school are all busy with their own life, its the kind of school where to go to class, get your stuff done and leave to go back home.
This morning I had to wake up early to drive him to work, which is 30 minutes away, then I drive back home, get my assignments done for school and go to class at 5pm. Tonight he is hanging out with his friends because its the big football game, the pats vs. the jets. his friend is picking him up for work and then driving him to their friends house where they will watch the game, drink, blah blah blah. The game starts at 8:30, so I just asked him if he could be home by 12:30 because I am going to have to get up and let him in to the apartment when he comes home (we only have 1 key). I will probably be awake to let him in since I tend to go to sleep pretty late but I want him home at that time, mostly because I get lonely here at home being by myself all day. He doesn't hang out with his friends a lot, probably once a week but he does work a lot and only gets 1 day off a week anyways.
I just didn't think that it was a ridicious request for him to come home at 12:30am, whereas he is saying that he never gets to hang out with his friends and the fact that I am imposing a curfew on him is ridicious.
I just feel like after all the stuff I do for him, especially since I had to get up early this morning and drive him to work, which I do almost every day, that or I just give him my car to take which leaves me stranded at home, he shouldn't make a big deal about coming home at the time I ask him to.
Am i being unreasonable?
