Question - (21 November 2010) 0 Answers - (Newest, )
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

I found my boyfriend still in contact with his ex...feel betrayed. How do I get over my jealousy?

I have been with boyfriend since Dec last year. When we got together he told me that he split with his ex 6 months before and she left the country in August. I made it clear to him that I did not want to get involved if he still had unfinished business with her. he assured me that it was dead and buried and they were on friendly terms.

I recently found out he had another e-mail account that he did not tell me about. It shows that he had been in regular contact with his ex. During christmas when we had just got together they were e-mailing every day, sometimes 2 or 3 times per day.(N.B she finished with him)

We had a huge row, he says that he is not sleeping with her and that he is not saying anything romantic in his messages to her therefore I should not have a problem if he wants to be friends.

Because I was so angry he said he would stop. I then found out that he told her to e-mail him at his work address (which I cannot see) because if I see e-mails from her I will get upset. I was super upset at this so now he has broken all contact with her. I should be happy but I can't stop thinking about it.

I hate that I am in the role of jealous girlfriend.

This all happened a few months ago so why do I keep thinking about it now?

To make things more complicated I am seven months pregnant. It wasn't planned but we are both very happy about the baby.

I suppose I feel insecure. I am crazy about him but can't help thinking that he doesn't feel for me what he felt for her.

I don't want to ruin a good thing and I think he does love me. I have got myself in such a state thinking about it I feel I just want to run away somewhere. I feel so desperate.

Any advice welcome...
