Question: Why do we want what we cant have? im in this situation...my boyfriend and i have been dating for about 8 months now. i really love him and i want to have the best relationship possible, but i keep hearing all of these rumors. like he's always flirting with all of these other girls. when i ask him about things that really bother me he jumps off and it always seems to come back as me believing everything i hear. he wants me to express my self and be real with him but when i do it just doesnt come out right. i want him to be faithful, but i just dont know if i can trust him. i know that he really cares about me,,, but i also think that there are some sideline females that im not 2 sure about. i really need to know the truth, but i dont want to lose him...what should i do?

Answer: i think the best way is honestly asking him and speaking up about how you feel.....theres really no easy way to do this and its hard to not feel jealous. i hated showing signs of jealousy towards my boyfriend but sometimes you have to.\ni know that in my last relationship i didn't speak up and ask him about other girls and he ended up breaking up with me for this other girl that was always sticking around.\ni was so upset about it, and knew he always had a thing for her too. well the good news was they went out for 2 months and realized she wasn't the same way i was. broke up with her and now is coming back to me. weird isn't it?
