writes:I am having trouble accepting how sociable my boyfriend is. He sometimes meets friends who are girls one on one for a drink, and he has a night out coming up with some friends he made at work (all girls apart from one guy) he is a very sociable person and says friends are just friends to him regardless of gender. He is very open with me and tells me his plans. He is fine about me going along with him but he didn't invite me on the work night because he said it was jus work people going. We have made very clear boundaries about what is crossing the line in terms if friendships. I know logically he isn't doing anything wrong but I can't help getting jealous, and I feel like I'm pushing him away. I know how much he loves me but I can't seem to shake off my insecurities. I don't really have male friends, never have even when I'm single I've always been friends with females. Is this my problem?

If you felt you were good enough for your partner and that he loved you then you wouldn't get jealous. Rise above it and make some male friends perhaps. x
