Before figuring out how to deal with them, and survive the partnership, it’s important to make sure he is, in fact, spoiled. The more of these signs that you see, the more of a brat he is.

How Do You Deal With A Spoiled Boyfriend
Now that you know that your partner is a little more on the bratty side, it’s time to take control to do something about it. The conversations that you have with him regarding his behavior should be geared towards the specific problems that you have with your partner, but these guidelines will help you see results.
1. Have the talk at his house
While it’s common to have difficult conversations in a public place to avoid a scene, this is a bad idea with a bratty boyfriend. These men are known for making a scene, so it could be a disaster. Instead, have it at his place so that you can leave if he throws a tantrum.
2. Remind him you love him
Hearing that you’re a brat can be a tough pill to swallow. Instead of being harsh, take a gentle approach. Remind him that you love him, and want him in your life. Tell him what it is that you like about him, and give specific examples to show that you want to keep him in your world.
3. Avoid ultimatums unless you mean them
Ultimatums can result in quick change, but they don’t always work. Don’t threaten to leave unless you’re ready to have him out of your life. If you do this and don’t follow through, he won’t take what you say seriously.
4. Tell him the problems
When discussing the problems with his behavior, tell him specifically what behaviors bother you. Avoid general statements or accusatory statements, such as you’re a brat or you’re always selfish. For example, point out that you do not feel that he has any respect for you. Then, give examples of things he does that are disrespectful.
As you discuss these things, it’s important to also tell him how this is affecting his life. He might not realize the problems it is causing at home or work. He might also not realize how other people see him.
5. Acknowledge your part in his behavior
He might be the one acting a specific way, but he is not the only one at fault. You have to take a moment to accept your own role in his actions.
For example, he’s the one that sends you a text from the other room asking you to grab him something to drink, but you are the person that does it for him. Acknowledge things you do at home that enable his behavior to continue.
6. Tell him the new rules
For this to work, you have to do your part. Tell him the new rules of your life together, and remember to emphasize that you like him a lot, but cannot continue to live like this.
If possible, come up with them together. Someone will be more likely to change if they take part in the changes. You both change to change the course of your relationship together.
FAQs
How do you deal with a spoiled boyfriend?
You have to un-spoil him. Stop enabling his behavior, giving in to his temper tantrums, and do not make him the center of your world. It’s important to maintain a positive attitude and be nice to him through this change in behavior, too.
Is it OK to spoil your boyfriend?
It’s okay to spoil your boyfriend, but don’t overdo it. If he’s starting to act more like one of your kids, the spoiling has gone too far or he’s taking advantage of it. It’s also important to only do this if you want to, or if it makes you happy. When you feel like you have to, it breeds resentment.
What does it mean when a guy spoils you?
It means that he’s head over heels in love with you, and just want to see you happy. He could also be a giver, and this will make him want to spoil you constantly. People that are givers enjoy giving things to others, whether it be financially, gifts, or a random meal so that you don’t have to cook.

What is a toxic relationship?
A toxic partnership often has at least one person that has toxic behavior. They might be selfish, self-centered, consistently have to be in power, or be abusive. When they act like this, it wreaks havoc on the emotional well being of the other person, which is what makes it so toxic.

My last ex boyfriend was emotionally abusive with me and always had to have his way. He would shout at me often and start fights with me. I would often get in tears. (He got away with making his mother and god mother cry when he was a kid). He was frequently asking me for money and most of it was not paid back. I was scared of him a lot, since I felt like he was bullying me frequently despite my standing up for myself. We had counseling, things would be great
for 3 days, then go back to square 1. If you think you are getting abused, follow your instincts and get support! I am a lot happier without him!
