How jealous are you?

Tweet

I don’t think of myself as a jealous person. Both my husband and myself have male and female friends. I don’t care if he looks at other women. Something that does work under my skin – his ex-girlfriend, his “first love” who crushed him years ago. They broke up about two years before we met and she really didn’t care about him until he met me. So we had a short “battle” of sorts with her the first month of two we were together and we have not heard from her since. That was four years ago. He is contemplating going back into the military and we were going through all his old stuff from 6 years ago. There are letters people from when he was in boot camp. There are quite a few from her, now he has no clue they are in there, he didn’t even look at the pile. In fact, he has not touched the stuff until tonight from when he originally packed it away 5 ago. The letters and cards are all about how much she loves him, never wants to leave him, etc etc etc. That just gets under my skin. Why am I jealous? He is married to me. He didn’t keep the letters intentionally all this time, he doesn’t even know he has them (probably doesn’t remember getting them), he doesn't like her as a person and doesn't talk to her. Are you like this, or am I the only insane one?
