Your concerns are justified, but he’s also correct that you’re jealous — however, a boyfriend who was more interested in making this work would try to bring you on board and invite you to meet up with his “new friend” 😕 or else decide that friendship was less important than your security — providing you don’t go crazy every time he has a female friend who’s just that — a friend.
It sounds like the two of you have a relationship that has more drama than peace in it, since you write that you broke up several times in a year and a half, and now, he’s basically asking for another break. 🙄
It doesn’t sound like he’s as committed to you as a boyfriend who wants to marry you or be involved in a healthy long term relationship would be. Rather than strengthen intimacy between the two of you, he’s put this friendship with an ex-girlfriend first. Since you haven’t given me any reason to believe you’re an overly jealous person, I think you can do better than the relationship you have with him. 😳 This new break he’s imposing may be just the excuse you need to move on and find someone with whom there aren’t so many dramatic breaks or power plays.
I hope that helps — and that you’ll join me on Facebook at this link: [url][/url].
