Something interesting to think about

My boyfriend has a girl that is a friend. They have went on a couple of dates together before we started dating. Now I feel like she is flirting with him most of the time we have group hangouts. I feel like it's my own personal insecurities. Is there maybe something I can do to stop the jealous feelings that I get?

What comes around goes around.

If your boyfriend hasn't given you any reason to worry, you shouldn't be worrying. If for some reason he has, than I think you need to talk to him. Speaking with him should allay some of your insecurities. Good luck.

heather,

You said that you "feel like she is flirting with him."

Perhaps change to a different group that she is not part of, so you can have him all to yourself.  The other possibility is that "he's not all that into you."  If he's not really all that interested in YOU, your only option would be to move on with your life and let them be together.

Maybe she is flirting with him but who is he with? What has he ever said about her following their dates? Was he not very keen on her or the other way round? If he was not very keen on her then chances are she has a bruised ego that he is now in a relationship with you and chose not to be in one with her, so could be trying to flirt with him because she is a bit burned and thinks what has she got that I haven't. You could also be being paranoid because you know they went on a few dates, but you need to logically work out whether she is or whether it's you. If it's you then just ignore it and concentrate on your relationship, after all he is with you not her. If she is flirting, I think changing your group of friends is a tad drastic as they are your friends, but talk to your bf, ensure that you are both aware of what she is trying to do and put on a united front by simply ignoring her. She will soon get bored and by you not reacting will nip it in the bud even quicker. There are jealous people out there you just have to lift your self confidence and not let them bother you. Best wishes.

First I would just be honest with him that your curious about the circustances. Don't get mad jelousy doen't get you anywhere. Don't change friends you can't go through life expecting everyone to be blind to the fact that you have an attractive spouse. Self esteem is the key here. Be comfortable with yourself. You have to have trust in him. 

1. Trust your instinct. Is she flirting Yes or No

2. Do you trust him . If yes  so what if she is flirting He is yours and you take it as a compliment that you have him

3. Don't be Nieve.     If she is out of line  continuesly,  address it to him first that you are uncomfortable. Stand your ground and don't be a push over. Stand up for yourself .toward her - Don't cause a scene, that puts fuel to her fire , but express yourself  Directly to her- be blunt to the point but NOT rude . 

4. Always love yourself

I would talk to my boyfriend about what your feeling. What your feeling is probably not your over active imagination, girls alot of times have a way of wanting things they can't have. I have known girls not even interested in a guy, he gets into a serious relationship and they come out of the wood works. All in all people out of everything are looking to be loved and if they think they can touch on this in which ever way they do, not realizing love doesn't work this way anyhow. Remember though if you & your boyfriend are ok don't let others ruin your relationship by competing with them, after all you originally got together because he likes you GOOD LUCK!

i think that you can trust someone and still be jealous.i believe it is natural for human beings to be territorial,but you can drive him away by acting out on it.when you find yourself hanging out as a group,try to make sure you feel confident about what youre wearing,your hair,etc,whatever you feel confident about.this helps jelousy sometimes.i think it would be inconsiderate of your boyfriend to continue to spend a lot of time with her if she has no respect for the fact that he is in a relationship and is flirting inapropriatly.if he doesnt care that his friend is neglecting to respect that he has you,then he is disrespecting you as well, in a second hand way.his priority should be your feelings about what she is doing.and i dont think someone needs to be convinced that you have reason to feel this way.girls are sneaky and competititve,trust your instincts.

If she is clearly flirting with him then you should say something to him so he can address the problem with her, but also, if she's clearly doing it and he hasn't said anything to her, it would make me wonder why. Don't think too much into it though it's completely natural for an ex of some sort to still flirt with him if they are friends because that's just what people do. She might be jealous of you. :)
