how to tell my boyfriend I need time to myself?
so my boyfriend likes hanging out... a lot. which I love, but, I kinda need time to myself to catch up on basic things like working out, cleaning, and honestly just relaxing, finding a job, etc. he doesn't take it when I say like sorry I can't hangout today because I'm looking for a job or something, he will just be like oh well can't you hangout after? and it's pretty annoying because he thinks no matter what I have to do I can always at least hang out after even if it's 11pm. honestly, I just wanted the next two days to myself, to go shopping, relax, workout, self I
prove etc but idk what to tell him because he doesn't take anything the right way.. the only thing I can do is make up an excuse of soemrjinf like I have to babysit all night of stuff like that, but I feel like last time I said that he knew I was lying.,, but there's no way to get out of it! I need a break from seeing him sometimes so I can focus on myself!
what should I do?
Tell him that stuff you just said.

well I don't want him to think I don't wanna see him.. and I have anxiety and bad depression right now so I don't think he would realy be able to understand how I feel and why I wanna be alone

tell him that too
Yeah it's tough. There can be too much of a good thing. Maybe if he can't deal with some time away he might not be that great. Don't let it build until you can't stand him.
