I(19F) am in a long distance with my boyfriend(19M). We meet once or twice every two months and we face time regularly which works just fine for me as I can get overwhelmed easily and if we would live in the same city see each other every day I would probably just end up ghosting him.

Our relationship started as a summer fling and I didn't expect to hear from him again after the summer ended, but here we are after almost 2 years together.

We never fought, but I do have a problem with our relationship which is that he's very clingy. Even when we face time he tells me that he loves me like every 3 minutes. Also, when we spend time together he's always insisting on just staying in bed and cuddling when I would much rather go and spend some time outside. We are pretty much adults now and being that clingy seems childish to me.

Now the problem is that there is a competition next week which we are both attending and he insists on spending time together after. The thing is that I'm not going alone. I'm going with my father and it's a 3 hour long car ride to the city where the competition is going to happen. I was looking forward to just getting the competition over with, maybe going to get some pizza with my father after and going straight home to finish the rest of my homework and projects for school. Also I don't want to make my father wait for me for too long. He insist that he can come too, but I simply don't want him there. We will see each other soon anyway and I don't see the point in wasting time now.

WIBTAH if I told him the truth?
