I am in college and my girlfriend is the same age as me. I really like the girl a lot and she likes me a lot too. I would have never considered myself a jealous type or even a jealous person at all. Definitely way less than almost all of my friends.

 

But there is one thing that is always eating at me. My girlfriend loves to talk about her ex's and hookups to me. She has had a lot of hookups before me and that really doesnt bother me too much. My problem is she still hangs out regularly with 4 or 5 of the guys... Basically the only people she hangs out with are her roommates and 10-12 guys in which she has basically hookup with half of them.

 

I dont know why but this is weird to me. I know if I tell her I am hanging out with the last girl I hooked up before her, she gets really uneasy and acts like nothing is bothering her when I know it does.

 

Am I being way too jealous and insecure?

I honestly don't think you are being unreasonable and insecure. I'd say she does not know how to draw boundaries or she does not care about you. I don't know the nature of ther relationships that she has with her previous hookups.. I don't care if it is just a friendship or anything, but I'd say it is very disrespectful. At least she should NOT brag about it or open talk about it with you because obviously it is NOT something you should feel proud of or feel comfortable talking about.

 

So, if I were you, I'd give her a hint or two how uncomfortable you were. If she continues to do it, just confront her. If she says it is none of your business whomever she;d like to hang out with, then it is not worth it.

Overly jealous people are stupid.

 

Yesterday I told this one guy that his girlfriend is hot. I meant it as a compliment but he turned red and obviously got upset.

 

Maybe he felt threatened because he thought I might have interest in his girlfriend or what? Honestly I dont think his girlfriend is that hot. But compared to him she is quite a looker. Maybe thats why he is so jealous.

 

It seems to me jealousy comes from personal insecurity.
