Hi everyone, I have a big issue here and I can't seem to figure out why I am acting this way. Let me start off by saying that I have a wonderful boyfriend that has been there for me and my children through alot. Well our realtionship in kind of long-distance. We live 2 hours away from each other and we have been together for 2 years now. He recently start going out with a friend and it seems like i get kinda of jealous when he goes out. The funny thing is that it always seems to be late at night and he says that its because he sleeps during the day, which is true. I work, go to school and have two children and I really dont get to muach time to myself at all. I know he is not cheating I just always get this jealous feeling, and it is horrible. Coud there be a reason why I am feeling like this. What do you guys think?

I've been married for almost a year now and I think it's a natural feeling sometimes for us to feel a little bit jelous..This is just my opinion ok so I hope you don't take it the wrong way...I think that maybe the reason why you may be feeling a little jelous is the friend your boyfriend is going out with spends more time with him then you do? With being long distance even though you love each other it's probably just the feeling of wanting to spend more time with that person and his friend that he goes out with is getting the time you wish you had right now with him..That is just an observation..I know back when my husband and I were dating I felt that way too..When we first got back together we were going to spend new years together because I told him I was going to give us another chance..He was on his way to pick me up to introduce me to some friends of his and we would spend the weekend together..His truck broke down and the friends would only pick him up cuz they lived the opposite way..I was jelous cuz I didn't get that night with him and they did...

Hi Michele, I have admit that i am a jealous type too. Being jealous sometimes turns my life into a nightmare. We can try not to think about bad things like cheating and try not to argue when you are jealous. Because i know that i said really bad things when i am lealous and hate myself. If you start to hate yourself or feel unhappy with yourself, everything goes worse.The story about your life made me feel like you are a lonely person, a young mother with 2 kids, trying to finish her education, very busy young woman and have a good boyfriend and he is someone you really trust. I guess your jealousy is all about a fear losing your silent and safe harbour in this rough sea. And which totaly makes sense. Good luck.

means you have your 'one love' deeply in your heart, your hubby. Small matter my dear friend michele609, just sincerely ask your hubby of why did he reacted to you that such way? Breed new close up of relationship with your hubby, showed that your hubby is a 'silent' person whom does not tell you why he dislike you for what you've done to him. Jealously is good in life partnership, but take it moderately.
