My girlfriend and I are in a serious, committed relationship- I love her more than the world. Recently though, she has been saying things like, "I feel like I'm missing out on the college experience", and "I'm afraid I'm going to screw this up".
Last night she went out to a party and afterwards when we talked on the phone she repeatedly said that boys who were there hit on her and were all over her (physically). She told me this because she is sure her roommates (who are my friends more than hers) will call me and tell me that she was all over the boys. She then went on to say she is a very touchy-feely person with boys and that's just the way she is, I'm not very ok with that sort of thing- and she admitted herself that if I did what she did she would be upset.Should I be worried, should I say something, should I just let it go?
Ok I don't know your girlfriend personally but I am a girl and although I'm not like that I knwo girls who are and I would be careful I thinkl you should end it before she does something to hurt you.
This is not going to get better, and every time she walks out that door she's going to disrespect you. College is not the place to get into a committed relationship, because it is not conducive to stable behavior.
People are usually away from home for the first time, and they have a lot of pent up energy and no one to supervise them, so they want to go out and act out of control and they don't want someone there to tell them they are wrong.
A partner in a committed relationship would represent that same thing to someone trying to go out and party. You want to be mature and build something, and they are out there trying to destruct everything.
I wish there was an alternative, but there isn't. Just let her go, because it's only going to get worse. Might as well cut your loses instead of forcing yourself to endure even worse humiliation. One person can't hold a two person relationship together.
I think she's wanting to D.O.R. and probably date around now - That seems to be what she meant by missing out on the college experience. However, what if the tables were turned? She would have no call to be upset if some other girl or girls were to step up to you. That said, if you guys have a discussion and you two decided to put it all on hold, or she breaks it off.the number one rule: DO NOT show you are upset, or bothered by all this.no matter if she is seen in the company of other guys. Trust me on this one. if you want to hold on to her. She'll eventually come back without you having to lift a finger or by you doing something unintentionally to make you look bad.
Has she done things like this in the past? How long have you two been going out? If you two have been together for awhile and she is just now starting to mention these "situations" she could be testing, or as far as telling you about them goes, covering her own ass like she stated in less blunt terms. She doesn't want to lose you as of yet, but she still wants to "experience" things and "live life to the fullest" without consequences. As the saying goes she wants to have her cake and eat it too.
I wouldn't say that you should let it go necessarily, but you shouldn't jump down her throat either. Let her know you don't like it, but don't go all crazy on her. As far as her jealousy goes, that is she does those things, she has no right whatsoever to be upset with you if you are in the same situation of "girls being all over you." As for the matter of her roomates, have they actually called to tell you that? Let your close guy friends know about the situation, have them "keep an eye on her" as the saying goes, not stalk or spy on her persay, just observe how she acts at parties when you aren't around. She may just be trying to cover her own ass while she's screwing up, or she might actually be telling the truth. Mayhaps she's opening the door to actually do something stupid and hopes by gradually getting into it, she won't lose you.
I apologize for the long essay of an answer, but something like this is rather complicated, heck anything with girls or women for that matter tend to be complicated.
First off, let me say that I'm new here. So the story goes.Me and my girl have been together for 7+ years. Tonight I found out that she cheated on me...
