Honestly just when he says rlly nice stuff to me that I’ve never heard before. Bc I know he has said it before. He is my first bf and prior to me he was in a 5 year relationship.

Awe I understand why you may overthink and feel very jealous, have you talked to him about your feelings? I have felt the exact same way but I feel more comfortable in my relationship now to not think about his past and focus on how he treats me and loves me right now. I think that by communicating and building up your relationship, it will make you feel safe and secure but as time goes on it will slowly go away

I have brought it up and he’s so nice abt it and understands and it makes me feel better in the moment but then I go back to feeling the same way. I just hate feeling like this and I would be stupid to break up w him and loose him but idk how much longer I can take it.
