maybe that girl is just his friend. dont be jealous bcs of a muah but pay attention to that girl sure. also about your bf remember to give him care and remember him how important he is for you. if you do this to a guy he has no reason to look for another girl^^ anyway just pay attention to them bcs in internet we never know :( wish you the best^^ and try to see things without ask him to delete her. or he might feel you are controlling him.

Hi there It actually depends dear. How is your man related to that girl? If it's just a friend then it's actually not a big deal. If you trust your man then that should not be an issue. Don't bother about it. But you can always ask your boyfriend about the girl right?

nah don't be jealous...YET. if they do something worse, something beyond the line of doubt, then there you'll have a valid reason to be jealous. petty things should just be put aside because it might only irritate him (he might say that you don't trust him enough - which might provoke him to do something really bad on purpose).

hi rubelyn, If that cases happen to come several times in your relationship. Then, I guess you should be not jealous at all but alarmed. Always think the foundation of your relationship will exists as long both of you have been there to work things out, even there are other people trying to bring mess into your relationship. Take note, this is only a part of test in your relationship. It is part of any relationship to have trust, respect and open communication. Tell him what you really think and feel and it is your boyfriend part to eliminate those unwanted instances in providing you the assurance you need. Besides, either those girl move sideways, you will and always be his girlfriend and no one can replace your position in your man's heart. Happy mylotting

I was thinking about your question and somehow, I tried to put myself into your shoes. People might think I am insecure but I think I would feel jealous. Jealousy is a sin but it doesn't mean we should stop ourselves from feeling this way because there are a lot of instances in life that we cannot help ourselves but to get jealous. If your boyfriend replies to the other girl's text messages than yours and if he gets mad at you just because you asked him to delete her number, then maybe there's really something about the girl. If he treats you as more important than anyone else, then he won't do something that will make you insecure. He can explain to you well but he shouldn't get mad at you. Well I am not telling you to suspect him immediately but I guess it would be better if you'll just try to be wise and be careful.

NOp. Don't be. You would look insecure if you do. It was just a 'mwah'. Very far from I love you. As long as it's not your boyfriend who texts 'mwah' I don't think you should be worried

Don't be, It's like this, imagine you have a very close friend of yours and he is just a very sweet person, so he would sent you messages like goodnight mwah! But he knows that you are taken, but he doesn't mean to make your boyfriend jealous he is just like that.. You should be alarmed if a girl sent her "i miss you and i love you baby" I think that is the time you should be mad. trust him more he will love you more.

i'll tell you, even God is jealous when we do have other gods to worship..of course, in cases like that when our loved ones prioritized people other than us, a feeling of jealousy is inevitable though others tend to hide their true feelings. i am a jealous person you know, but when im getting jealous , i just keep it my self. i never tell anybody about my feelings for fear of being ashamed. the best way ,in dealing jealousy, i think, maybe, is to try approaching the concerned person, tell him about your feelings and maybe he'll stop doing such things which make you jealous.

nothing to get jealous.. probably she is just a friend, instead try to ask him about her in a nice way so for him to be able to tell who she was...the more a guy being confronted the more they get angry...

Well, that actually depends on you. No one here can say whether you should get jealous or not. But if this would happen to me, I sure as hell will get mad at my boyfriend. No other girl should be kissing him apart from me (and his family), even when it's only written. I can make an exception when women just give him polite kisses of greeting or farewell. Here in my country we often do that. I do that with men too. There's no malice in it. It's just part of our culture. But if someone kisses him to say hello or goodbye but I know that there's malice in it, then that becomes a different story because they are just using the "hello/goodbye kiss" as an excuse to really kiss. I hope my point of view helped you clarify your own thoughts and feelings about this.

It's normal to feel jealous specially if you don't know the person. However, it's not okay if you will dwell on that feeling. If I'd be in your situation I'd also feel the same way you felt. Jealousy is an emotion or a feeling so it's normal you feel that way. However, though I'd feel a bit of jealousy I would not dwell on that feeling. How would I react? I would ask my boyfriend who was the girl. I'd let him explain. I would not make a big fuss about it though. However, just for me to have a peace of mind I'd like to know if the girl is his close friend or whatever she maybe in his life. If the girl is just a friend it will not be a big deal for him. However, I'd know if he is trying to hide something and that's based from experience. Usually the guy would be defensive, look upset and would not want to discuss about it. They also get uncomfortable and uneasy. That's what we girls call girl's instinct. I'd tried to neglect my girl instinct a lot of times and it always turn out that I should not have taken it for granted. In those situations my instinct has always been right. Just bad that it's too late for me to know and I'd have to find it out the hard way.

i dont think you need to be jealous about it....if you become jealous right now...he will continue....when you resist it appears and if tou accept it disappears. You can put a better message to show how much you love him.

Come on girl. You know what to do. If he saw a text from a guy that said the same thing, we would probably dump you. The only reason he doesn't want to delete this girl is because he wants to keep talking to her. It is also a really bad sign that he doesn't even care enought to lie to you about deleting her. What I mean is of course you shouldn't lie, but his truth is almost worse. He doesn't care if this makes you upset. Get out before this gets really ugly, and let the new girl and whoever he cheats on the new girl with to deal with this mess. Your boyfriend should be single and shouldn't have a girlfriend. He is angry because he wants to see if you will fall for it and he is trying to confused you. You know what to do. I know it hurts right now; but stay for another year and then tell me how you feel. There are plenty of guys who don't need a display of internet girlfriends to make themselves feel like more of a man. This guys should have left you alone, and continued his life as a single man.

My opinion is that you don`t need to be jealous about it, maybe it was an innocent "mwuah", and maybe they are only buddies, and probably that`s why he got pissed off, because he knows that it`s nothing to worry about, and i think you have to trust him, if he had something to hide, i think that you would never found out about this.

I would suggest you not over-react to the use of "mwah". When you are talking about text or online communication, people use terms like hon, dear, love, sweetie, love ya, luv ya and such all the time. I think "mwah" falls into that category - like the way people do phony "air kisses" in person. There are some words that we used to consider terms of endearment which friends now use between themselves all the time and they have no meaning beyond friendship. Also, judging your boyfriend on the order he responds to messages seems a bit much. He could have just been responding in the order he received them or read them. There are so many things that can inspire jealousy... but "mwah" seems minor. As others have suggested, do keep an eye on how he communicates with the other girl, for sure... but don't find him guilty until you have some real facts. Good luck to you!!

You're probably reading too much into that. Mwuah is really nothing. I've gotten Mwuahs from happily married men and happily married females and I know for a fact they aren't after me. If you don't have more trust in your boyfriend though you might just chase him off.

Jealousy is a feeling, you cant stop yourself from being jealous. How we handle this feeling is where the problem starts. If your approach was nice and not like you're nagging him for that incident, then maybe he'll explain it in a nicer way and assure you that its really nothing. But watch out girl, if this happen too much then something is really not right.
