    Okay I’m really confused, and it’s starting to stress me out and cause emotional problems. I have a friend at work that use to talk to me everyday and every time she saw me she texted me every day and we did stuff together. She did make a few comments to me multiple times about how much my boyfriend looked like her ex but I just pushed it off. But then she even told my boyfriend that he looked like her ex just more manly. That’s when things started to bother me so I got kinda distant but then I saw them always working together at work and just laughing the whole time but on breaks she just walks right past me but every time I’m not around them there talking I’ve even told my boyfriend I have a weird feeling about how she is with him but he just gets angry and says its a problem between me and her and he doesn’t see anything. And I keep trying to explain to him why I’m upset but he refuses to see it all he says is I don’t get it you guys are friends but I feel like we’re not because she only talks to him. Am I just over thinking things or what? I’m so tired of crying and feeling stupid for feeling this way, and i don’t know what to do.

    You’re not wrong. Your work frenemy has a crush on your boyfriend, and it sounds like you all work together. However…. your approach isn’t working and I suggest you change it. 😉 By picking at a scab, you’re going to create a real wound, so stop nagging your boyfriend to confess or admit a situation that is a losing one for you. If your boyfriend is denying the situation or doesn’t see it — you’re just making a mountain out of a molehill. Instead… accept that you’ve got competition, and decide to win. Bring your A game to the relationship and focus on the relationship you have with your boyfriend. He’s not going to cheat or leave you because she’s amazing — he’s going to cheat or leave you because the relationship the two of you has problems (so don’t make any by complaining about her to him). Be the girlfriend who gets the guy. Have fun, flirt with him, make memories together and become stronger than ever because this other woman has given you that opportunity. In other words, turn it all around and make this about you and the boyfriend — not your boyfriend and her. 🙂

    I hope that helps!
