Should I break up with my boyfriend? Please tell me what to do?

Today is my 6 month anniversary with my boyfriend and instead of feeling excited, I am confused. My boyfriend does not want me to have any new male friends. I only have 2 male friends right now that I had before meeting him. I try to make sure he is comfortable with this. Initially, I agreed to no new male friendships, but then felt like some of my freedom was being stripped away. I talked to him about it and explained I would like the option if it came available. I do not seek out men friendships, but wanted the option if an an opportunity becomes available. I don’t care if he has female friendships. I trust him wholeheartedly and it hurt my feelings that he did not. He agreed finally for new male friendships but put a lot of rules on it. I agreed because I knew I would have to compromise somewhere to make him feel better. Now fast forward 3 months and he’s been acting weird. I asked him today if he was happy in our relationship and he said, “I’m neutral” which had me floored. He confessed he still didn’t like what we had discussed and was having a hard time getting past it. He has already accused me of being “too nice” to men in the past. He was raised in Uruguay and I was born and raised in the south. I am naturally very talkative and nice because of this. I love him, but I’m not really sure what to do at this point.
