If your boyfriend feels secure with you he won’t start behaving jealously. But if he’s insecure, ask yourself where you can make him feel better about the two of you. For instance, if you’re going out with a group of guys, and you know that that might bother him then mention it to him in advance. Is there a reason he can’t go along with you all? If he feels jealous of the group get together then invite him to come along. Unless of course you don’t want him to come and you truly are distancing yourself with lies to give yourself privacy to test the dating waters and see what else is out there.
First and foremost be honest with yourself about what it is you’re doing and feeling. Second, be honest with him about the broad strokes in the relationship. White lies are okay because they’re often part of being polite. (“I love your haircut,” is okay to say when you really don’t.) But make it clear to yourself if there is something for him to truly be jealous about or not.
I hope that helps. Let me know how it goes. And join me on Facebook. I’d love to see you there at this link: [url][/url].
