Hey, I know exactly how you feel, I'm in a similar situation with my boyfriend. First, what you need to do is plan things for you and her to do together that take up a lot of time. Make plans to do something in advance so that way if he happens to ask her to hang out she will already have plans with you. The second thing is you need to be upfront with her, I understand how it is when they get angry because my boyfriend is the same way but you need to tell her that she is your girlfriend and you want to spend time with her as well. And lastly, you need to ask yourself if you trust her, if you do then you should believe what she says about him being just a friend. I know how hard this situation is and it does really suck but It helps when you know others are in the same situation. I wouldn't get yourself too worked up about this, if you and your girlfriend are happy with one another then it'll be okay. Everything will work out, good luck!

It is what it is:)

I'll give you some vague advice but you didn't leave many details... Like how you feel about this and what your gut is telling you about their involvement... Or are you around and involved with the relationship... are you invited to hang out with them together? Does he come over and eat with the two of you as a couple? What type of things do they do together? If her relations with him are seperate and you aren't involved... I think you should ask to be included make yourself available instead of jumping on defense... and take things from there...

She only has this one friend and the last relationship she was in they had mutual friends. When that relationship ended she lost all her friends and i think im not invited to hang with them because she's afraid we would hit it off. I trust her completely but she also knows that i sit at home waiting for her...no life outside of her! So im starting to think that if i made myself not available 24/7 she might run back to me from time to time!!

To try and be someone else is to waste the person you areLaughing

If she says he's not a romantic interest, then chances are, he's not! Just take a breath. Even though she is probably head over heels for you, she still needs the freedom to hang out with other people. And, just because the person she hangs out with is the opposite sex, it doesn't mean that he is more than just a friend! I'm sure you have some friends that are girls. But you still love her, right? Give her some space! Don't bug her about it all the time....but if it keeps going on for a while and you suspect they may be more than "just friends", then talk to her about in private. I hope this helped...
