Question: I am the most jealous girlfriend, and it is causing problems in my relationship. How can I not be jealous? Every where my boyfriend and I go, no matter who he talks to, even a less attractive girl, I get insanely jealous. If we are out with his friend and his girlfriend my boyfriend says hi to the other girl and it drives me crazy. My boyfriend is not the cheating type at all and I know he would not do that , but I cant help but feel these feelings. Even when he tells me he is going out with his friends we argue badly because I think he will be talking to other girls. The reason I think this is because his friends are womanizers and they are always trying to get laid. I do not want my boyfriend hanging out with these people, but he says that they are like brothers and he would not cheat on me. How do I not be such a jealous girlfriend.

Answer: You should learn to like yourself more - he obviously loves you or your behaviour would have driven him away by now. It must hurt him to think that you don't trust him. Has he ever cheated on you? No, and what's more, you say you know he wouldn't. Don't argue with him when he goes out with his mates, tell him you trust him to enjoy himself without copying their womanizing behaviour and he'll be proud of you and will look forward to returning home to you. If you keep on accusing him & arguing, he'll eventually seek solace & comfort elsewhere; someone who won't nag him will seem an attractive idea! If he knows you trust him, he will enjoy being with you all the more. Even if he does talk to girls, it doesn't mean that he is going to run off with one of them! Try to trust & believe in him, and he'll repay you with all the loyalty you are seeking. Also, make sure that he takes you out (just the two of you) regularly. Good Luck!!
