I am 20 years old, and have been with my boyfriend for nearly 5 years. I moved away for a year and came back because it was too hard for us to be apart.
I have a bad problem with me getting jealous when he talks to other girls. He has never once given me a reason not to trust him. He has tons of friends, but no close girl friends.
I don't have many girl friends either. I did where I lived for a year, but when I am back here with my boyfriend, I am friends with him and HIS friends.
My boyfriends best guy friend was hookin up with this girl that my boy and I got to be aquantances... they aren't hookin up anymore, but we still run into her once in a while... Last night she text messaged my boyfriend and asking if she could come over to his house for the 4th of July. He said sure, then she said she had a question to ask him... she said she felt that they could be close friends, but wondered if his relationship with me would hender their closeness!!! I have been cool with her, and haven't even stopped or said anything about them being friends!!!
Now this upsets me though, cause I would like her to feel that she could have a close friendship with me!! Why does she need to get close to my boyfriend?
I really start to get insecure and protective when he talks to other girls... I can't help it!!! I am a very attractive girl with a very strong personality, I have been told i come off intimidating!? All of my friends are guys, and that doesn't bother my boyfriend, cause they are his friends too. Girls do not like me! My boyfriend insists that they are just jealous, but what do I do to stop me from feeling jealous??? Do I put off some sort of vibe or something!! How can I get girls to not find me so intimidating and vice versa!! And how do I stop getting so worked up when my boyfriend talks to other girls!!?????????
Please Help,
Confused and Jealous in Oregon!
