I am in my first, relatively new relationship of 3, almost 4, months. Things have been going well. I've been trying my best to be open and honest with my bf, and not afraid of conflict, especially when it comes to my feelings.
My issue is that I have been struggling with some insecurity and jealousy about his female friends. He is open about them, talks to me about them, and I've even met some of them. He even asked me if I'd feel comfortable if he gave one of his female friends a motorcycle ride, because he likes giving people rides, and didn't want to upset me.
I am someone that believes it's ok to have opposite sex friendships. But I still get jealous when I see that he's been texting female friends, especially the ones I haven't met. If I met them, I know I wouldn't feel as jealous. I also know that these feelings stem from my own self insecurity, and insecurity in our relationship.
How to I sit down with my bf to talk about my feelings and boundary desires in a constructive manner, while also allowing the both of us to have the freedom in friendships that I want us to have?
