Just to tell my own personal story...
I have always handled jealousy well. My girlfriends... not so much. I matchmaker'd one of my close gf's with one of my close guy friends, who previously did not know each other. She had a melt down because her mom was there to pick her up right when the pizza arrived at his house. She wanted us to go with her, but we were hungry and we paid for pizza, so we stayed and ate pizza and rode home with his dad.
She did not like us being there because she was so self conscious and I guess she compared herself to us. She would make instant enemies with her current boyfriends previous girlfriends, and be mean to them just because of that.
I made friends with my current boyfriend's previous ex's, because I want to know why they dumped him.
My boyfriend now is the first unjealous boyfriend I have ever had, and it is beautiful. We both go out with our different friends to different parties, then we meet up later. He can go out while I stay at home sometimes and vice versa.
I did get upset one time. He was always going over to this girl Kates house, which was fine. But one day I had been telling him all day that I was fiending. I wanted him naked and waiting for me when I got home. What does he do? Go drink at Kate's. :fight:
I was MAD... not because he went to Kates in particular. But because I got **** blocked by booze and his penis whacking friends. He knows how mad that makes me. He didn't get laid for a few weeks after that. lol.
