hey dearcupid..

im a very jealous person , and i see my boyfriend almost everyday. When my boyfriend and i are apart, and hes with his friends , i seem to always get an attitude because of me being jealous , and i try not to show it , but he still notices it. For some reason im very insecure about him being around his friends , i guess its because i know how they are, anywho. the moral of this is , how can i overcome my jealousy ? an example would be , when he goes out with his friends, and i tell him im gonna go with mine we get into a big argument because of me being "spiteful" , not because i really wanted to go out with them. and i sorta agree, but i cant help it to be like that . well any help ??? thanks.

aunt honesty agony auntI agree with Ghostchild, it is important when you are in a relationship to spend time apart and with friends. He said you where being spiteful, but you should both be free to do separate things as well as being together. Jealousy is a horrible thing and can really affect a person I guess you just need to trust him or else there is no point to the relationship.

GhostChild agony auntJealousy can be very overwhelming and has destroyed many relationships.

Both of you spending time with your friends isn't at all spiteful, he may have been being overly defensive there. But remember that you're his girlfriend, everyone else is just a friend.

Guys need time to hang out with their buddies otherwise they feel trapped, let him go have his fun with his friends just so long as he spends some time with you as well.
