I can't seem to stop comparing myself to my boyfriend's ex-girlfriends and old "crushes." I know he loves me, but I just can't seem to stop thinking, "She's thinner than me," or "Wow, she's so much prettier than I am," and "She's so funny, do I make him laugh as much as she does?" The irritating thing is a lot of them are still his friends, and he sees them when he's away at college. He's completely against cheating, but I still worry that something will spark between him and one of his exes and he'll leave me.

And just because this girl/girls is thinner than you does't make her more prettier, and just because she is funny does't make her more fun to be with, so trust your man if he love you, the other girl are nothing more than a friend to him. hope i help.

But think about it.. those girls are his past. You're his present and future. He loves things about you that those girls doesn't have. Or else he wouldn't be with you. I understand that you're worried there might be sparks again. But if a guy is truely in love with you, no matter how mayne hot girls out ther, you'll be the hottest girl in his eyes. A relationship is base on trust. You need to trust him. If he goes out with 20 sexiest girls on earth, you would be able to trust that you're the only girl on his mind and he wouldn't do anything. Of course you'll be jealous if that's a case, but trust is a key to a relationship.
So just don't worry too much. He's all yours and not theirs. hope I helped =]. [ justaskVy's advice column | Ask justaskVy A Question ]
ciao77 answered Tuesday January 23 2007, 2:14 am: It's somewhat natural to feel this way, but it isn't helpful. Don't ever compare yourself to other girls. I'm sure that you are a beautiful, caring girl too..your boyfriend must see something special in you.
It is okay that he's still keeping in touch with his exes. But the fact that you're worried about it is only harming you. You should let him know how you feel, without bottling up all your feelings. Be confident in yourself. Try not to compare yourself to others. You are your own person and must have so many nice qualities.
Trust me, I know exactly how you feel. There are a lot of fish in the sea. But it's your bait that has him hooked at the moment. [ ciao77's advice column | Ask ciao77 A Question ]
