Hi, i have been with my boyfriend for over 6 years now and i am unbeleivably jealous. I don't know why i am like this and i don't know how to stop. It's not just normal jealousy, it's really bad, to the point where we can't even watch tv together anymore without getting into a big argument. I have a problem with him seing other women naked, if one comes on tv i just freeze, i go all hot inside and i get so angry with my boyfriend and i just can't speak to him for the rest of the night.

We fall out over stuff like this all the time and he is getting sick of me which is understandable but i he doesn't understand that i would give absoloutley anything not to be this way, i just want to be like a normal couple who can do normal things together, i really need someone to help me, i can't afford to see a therapist and don't really have anyone to talk to so im hoping that maybe someone on here can help me and maybe gove me some advice. Thankyou :)

I am the same way. I think It bothers some guys to have thier significant others see a naked guy too. When a naked women comes on turn the channel. I think as you get older you will not care as much. I think what is bothersome to women is these women are all plastic and look perfect although they are not in reality as they are airbrushed. Check the movie ratings before seeing a movie together. And avoid tv shows that are too sexually oriented until you begin to feel more secure. Everyone has quirks it is not the worst thing to be like this.

If the U.K system is like the Canadian one you should see your family doctor to get a referral to a mental health professional (there are affordable/free services if you talk to a doctor). I am not suggesting that you are crazy or anything. But, this could become a serious problem very very fast. It is a solvable problem though. You just need help. And ignoring or "bottling" the feelings is NOT the answer. And by the way...what you are feeling has roots in very normal feelings, you are just experiencing them intensely than many other people. You are not a bad person.
