writes:I've been with my bf for a while now and we've been friends since we were in elementary/middle school. I trust him mostly, but he has a history of being very friendly and flirty. He works with mostly young women his age and has MANY female friends.To the point, I am a very jealous person and our relationship is sort of long distance. I think i may also have depression. I desperately need some advice on how to be more trusting. Anyone out there know how to deal wih an overly-friendly bf that lives far away?

It makes me feel like she would like to find something else other than me.But if you truly love her i think the best way to deal with it is if you just let him go because soon it might turn into a nasty confrontation.Without going into details my situation is way out of control and the only thing i need to do right now is give my wife(yes we are married)space so she can go flirting without me having to stand in her way.Believe you me when i say soon you are going to find him flirting again and it really is going to be harder for you.So to avoid the next episode i would say move on girl he is not the last one.

DeathSavesLives is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThank you so much for the advice. ^^ I think I may have some form of depression and i'm going to get it checked out. It's very nice to hear that things are going to be ok from an outside source.
Thank you!

But I cope because I know he loves me and only me (but I also have lots of trust issues. Espiecally around men) If you know he cares about you and are certain of his character than let your heart be easy.Also if you have a suspicion that you have depression, please see a doctor so that you can have a talk about your concerns and seek out a path to better your depressed state. This will help with your relationship. Seek counciling if your trust issues become to much of an issue.Good Luck, Hon!
