writes: My husband and I are in a situation where we need to move closer to his work. Unfortunately, that move will take us to the small town he grew up in. That town has LOTS of his ex girlfriends in it. (He was quite the cassanova) I am upset about this move since I won't be able to go to the store, church, get gas, etc. without coming face to face with any of them. Am I right for feeling this jealousy or should I just realize he is mine now and forget about them? He gives me no idication that I have anything to worry about and that he is all mine. He tells me that I'm the one that he fell madly in love with and chose to marry. So it's not like he's the cheating kind. HELP!

Is your husband much younger than you? Like 20? Are these girls he dated RECENTLY?
“am I right for feeling this jealousy”
NO I’m sorry you are NOT RIGHT for feeling this jealousy. Perhaps it’s not jealousy but you are very anxious moving to a town you are not familiar with but he is?

is there some other basis for your mistrust of him?

You said yourself the move is work-related, so it's not like he plotted it to be closer to anyone from his past. As he's telling you himself, he could have had these women but he picked YOU. There's no reason you can't hold your head high and be polite and classy to these women when you have to interact with them. If any of them had something you didn't, they'd have a ring to prove it - and they don't. Relax :)

You can choose to let it chew you up.... OR, you can go "adult" and assume that - now that you and he are grown up and married - that it makes no difference where you live....
Good luck...
