Wild Thaing agony auntYou are the only one who is bothered by this, not your boyfriend or his friend. If you want to mark your territory then no one is stopping you.

You have only your inner voice to guide you through this, but I cannot see you getting any satisfaction unless you confront one or both of them with your concerns. But this is not advice - it is simply stating what you want to hear.

Listen, if you trust your boyfriend then his gal pal's behaviour, as outrageous as you think it to be, is irrelevant. If you trust your boyfriend then make your displeasure known to your boyfriend, because you trust him to do the right thing, yes?

Wild Thaing agony auntLet me see if I have this straight. This girl that causes you so much worry and insecurity has a crush on your boyfriend... but he chose you over her.

And you are worried why?

If you let your insecurity drive the dynamic of the relationship then it will be you that torpedoes the thing, not this other girl.

If you start sending out vibes that you don't trust your boyfriend, you will drive him into her waiting arms.

Be honest with your boyfriend about your apprehensions without making him feel like he has to choose. Say something like, "Wow, you and xyz seem to have a comfortable friendship. Is she normally this affectionate with all of her guy friends?"

I hope this helps. Good luck and take care.

flower girl agony auntI think you need to talk to your boyfriend about this, because i think if you speak to the friend she might not take it too well from you.

Tell your boyfriend how you feel about her spending so much time with you, and just say you would prefer to spend abit more time with just the two of you.

If you say something to her things could turn nasty especially seen as you think she has a crush on him already, she might try to stir things up between you.

Take care.xx.
