writes:Me and my friend D have been together for about a month at this point now. We've been friends for 4 years now, and he used to be my bestfriend; but we drifted apart when he started dating a girl that he ended up being with for about 2 years. They were on and off for awhile, then broke up for good about 5 months ago. Hes had another girlfriend, then broke up with her. then a couple months later we got together.His ex that he was with for those 2 years is really mad that were together, and didn't approve of our friendship when they were together. She likes to do things to make him mad... Like whatever she can do to bother him, and it gets to him a lot. But whenever we see her, I feel like he does things like grab my hand, or just "claim touch" me around her. I feel like he does it to make her mad, but when we're alone hes extremely sweet and makes me feel like he wants to be with me because of me and like our relationship isn't to make her jealous.I feel like its because of my insecurities that magnify the situation, or I read into what goes on to much.I feel like he does things to bother her out of spite and to get her back for everything he did to her, and doesn't mean he wants to be with her, and that our relationship is based off that we've had crushes on each other all through high school.Please tell me if i'm being dumb, or if i am overreacting... Any insight is helpful. Thank you for your help.

 He could grab your hand and touch you; as a sign of reassurance when he see's his ex, not because he is trying to make her jealous.
Then again it could be he does this out of spite; the best way to find out is ask him!
Communication is essential in a relationship so you dont misunderstand each other.
