He talks to one girl all of the time online and I know that he would never ever cheat on me but when I see bits of the conversations that they have I realize that he says things too her that are witty and funny and when he talks to me he never really says anything funny like that. It seems like he's just trying to impress her and ignore me. He has always had more girl friends than guy friends so I know it's not that he has a crush on her. I would just like to be the one he's trying to impress.I recently got a job so I will be gone for long periods of time and this other girl will get to share little jokes and all the fun things that I want to enjoy with my boyfriend. Am I just overreacting?

I've talked to him about it and I realize that he's only trying to impress them so that he can have friends. All of our friends shunned us when we started dating so we're both kind of lonely. We spend everyday together so he is just looking for some other friends to talk to some of the time and I can understand that because sometimes I feel the same. I love him and I trust him but I know that if it ever goes too far I am not afraid call him on it.
Thanks again.

I dont think your overreacting. You should ask him what his problem is and why he doesnt make jokes like that with you. I would be well annoyed if i was you.

 Do you have anything to worry about? Does he hide his behavior from you or do you catch those jokes when he doesn't notice?
Is he finding comfort in another woman online from something missing in your relationship?
In my opinion, it is not respectful for a man to flirt with another woman if he is involved in a relationship. If he is flirting with another woman, he is disrespecting you. Some talk may not be flirting. But if you know for sure, you should confront that and express how you feel about his actions. Get the respect you need.
