I love my boyfriend and I know he loves me too but I can't figure out whether I'm being rational or not when it comes to liking celebrity posts and being friends with a girl he was interested in before me and vice versa. The guy I was involved with before him, I basically locked off completely because I thought that's would I should do if I'm in a relationship with someone else. I had deep feelings for him and I didn't want to keep any windows open especially since he could not respect my boundaries. I also stopped liking thirst traps and my whole feed as changed from shirtless boys because I assumed it was the respectful thing to do. This is my first relationship so I don't know if I'm taking things too seriously or not. These are things I thought he'd do as well. I don't like how he's associated with her, I don't mind regular human decencies like greetings but no further than that because she's very immature. If she had a more mature mindset, I, of course would not mind this but she like a typical teen, has lots of unnecessary attitude and stirring up gossip etc. I don't think liking celebrity's posts are good either because I don't see how expressing your like for another female when you have a girlfriend is honorable to her.
I know we must protect our individuality even in a relationship but I thought our actions must also protect each other's heart and image. I know sometimes I think too much into things but I just need to know another perspective to help me understand why I'm so bothered by it or why it may not be as much of a problem as I presume.
