Well Im no April but I thought I would offer you advice anyway.. I was 18 once too and relationships at that age can be very confusing. (they’re not much less confusing now! Experience makes it a little easier to understand) Now I hate to sound… unsympathetic, but it sounds to me like your boyfriend may have some personal issues that are beyond you. In my opinion I think it’s selfish of him to make you feel inadequate or immature for not being more understanding. In life you won’t always have the answer.. whether it be your mate, your friend, or one day your child searching for the solution. Sometimes the best help you can offer is a shoulder to lean on. This speaks volumes on its own. It’s not your fault that you cannot relate to his “adult” concerns. Chances are it has nothing to do with your age either. Like I said before I think your boyfriend has personal issues that can only be dealt with on his own. If it’s serious perhaps he should consider seeing a professional. Let him know that you care about him and that you want to be there for him in his time of need.
For your own personal well-being it’s important to let him know that while you want to be there for him, it’s unfair for him to make you feel like your letting him down because you don’t have the magic bullet that will solve all of his problems.
