Forget about her mother moving in next door as there are some things you cannot control in this life. Concentrate on sorting out your own feelings of jealousy as that is something you are in control of. If you think this woman being close to your home will affect the chances of your boyfriend straying then you are wrong - if he was going to cheat then he will go ahead and do it regardless of whether the woman is 2 metres or 200 miles away. Try to address your jealousy as it will really eat you up inside if you don't deal with it.

I too would be uncomfortable with somebody I was jealous of being on my home turf! BUT, I want to ask why you are so jealous of her? Has your BF ever shown any indication that he is interested in her or vice versa?
So how are you going to approach this? Does your man know about your issues with this woman and why you ahve them? If not, you need to tell him. I do not think that revealing your insecurity will do you any harm if your relationship is solid and stable. He may be able to provide some reassurance.
Unfortunately this is very difficult to answer as I do not know why you are jealous of her. If it is just because she is good-looking then you need to forget about it and believe your man is with you because he wants to be with YOU! But if there are other issues then it is more difficult.
