Hi. My girlfriend and I have been going out for 4 years. She has really been pushing me to get married. I do want to get married but there have been some things that have happened that is bothering me. About 2 years ago, i was away on business. My girlfriend and her single girl friend decided to go out to a nite club. I have no problem with my girlfriend going out and having a good time when i am gone. The problem is that this one night they went out, they got two guys to take them home. They ended up going to my girlfriends place for a few drinks. My girlfriend decided to go to sleep and let her friend kick out two guys. What ended up happening is that the friend took one guy to her house and left the other guy at my girlfriends house. When my girlfriend woke up in the morning, this guy was sleeping on her couch. Now this is her story, and i am glad she was honest with me and told me, but i was angry inside. I forgave her for what happened and life went on. However, this happened a second time. This time she didn't tell me, I found out about it from someone else and asked her about it and she lied to me and said it didn't happen. She finally came out with the truth when i told her who told me about it. This time i was really hurt and mad. The thing that got me really mad is she is a really jealous person. She always thinks that i am trying to cheat on her. It is starting to affect the people i work with and my social life. If i even glance at a female, she right away gets really mad and throws a fit. If i have any business contact with females in my job she has to ask a million quetions. She then gets an idea in her head that i am trying to have sex with this person and will not accept any other explanation. I have never cheated on my girlfriend or have the desire too. It is getting to the point where i am afraid to talk or look at other females i know. The thing that gets me the most mad is that she has done all this other stuff but seems to get mad at me for things that haven't even happened. It is making me get more and more distant from her. I have tried talking to her but it seems like she just doesn't get it and then she brings up something else to make me look like it was all my fault. I am trying ot keep an open mind here. I know i have my faults and i try really hard to make things work. It is getting to the point where i think i am going to give up and end things. My questions are to the females out there - Do you think what my girlfriend did was ok? What would you do if this happened to you? and for everyone - Let me know what you think about this! Thank you!
