I feel very insecure with my boyfriend

Question - (28 January 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 10 February 2010)
A female Australia age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Dear Cupid,

My boyfriend has been known for never being single for long. After a breakup, it doesn't take him long to get someone new. We have a history so I sure as hell hope I'm something special.

Whenever I hear one of his ex-girlfriends' names, I feel like I'm just the next one... That girl after *jenny and before *tanya, you know?

And I know some of his ex's and have seen pictures of others and they are all prettier than I am. Plus I'm a very down to Earth, family based kind of girl and he's more of the get drunk, party 24/7 kind of guy. All his past girlfriends seem to have fitted into that kind of a lifestyle but I don't. I don't know why he likes me.

Everytime I invite him over or to a family thing I feel bad because I feel like he is bored out of his brains every time. I feel like I'm pulling him away from something better and more fun.

Is there anything I can do to fix this? Or he can do? I want to avoid talking to him about it.

Please help, it's making me mopey, depressed and snappy.

Don't avoid it, that's where the problems will begin. You need to talk to him and tell him you feel insecure and need reassurance. You can't avoid problems in a relationship, you have to work through them. If you need reassurance, then ask for it. If he's a good guy, he'll give it to you.
