How about this. I think my love is holding me back.
How do you feel your love is holding you back?
Yes. I want to do stuff with my friends but she always wants me to stay close to her!
It sounds like your girlfriend has trust issues that you need so resolved or she will constantly be holding you back from whatever it is that you are doing. If anything, you should consider breaking up with her if she is dragging you down. Otherwise, you might be wasting time and effort in a relationship that is doomed to fail.
I have already thought about this. I can't give up all the times we've been through together.
Breaking up with her even temporarily might make her think twice. Sometimes a little space from both of you helps matters. But an overly clingy love interest is never a good one.
