Perhaps Im jealous...That my boyfriend still has contact with his childhood friend....that happens to be a girl in a bad relationship. She texts messages him at work about her problems and ends her texts with "love" Yes I have jealousy issues... but I dont have male friends saying "Love" to me. I dont think its apropriate. He has tried to encourage her to go to a womans shelter if shes having problems....but she wont go. I feel her bad marriage is putting a strain on an possibility of my boyfriend and I getting married. Sorry to make this sound like a Dear Abby. So what would Jesus do? What would you do in my shoes? Should i just let it continue? Maybe I need to say "I love you" to all my male friends too. I'll stop asking him once a day if shes text messaged him. Any input would be appriciated Im sure there is fault on my side to...and that no one will side with me...
LOVE,
Alicia
P.S. I never saw myself as a jealous person until I started dating... |

Hm,
Here's my take from both sides of the fence. My best friend is a woman, but it's been a developing relationship. One of the things that started it moving was our relization of what we would give up if we met other people. Elizabeth Elliot has some good books in this area, and I also recommend teht Boundless.org website, they oftne deal with these issues. As to the other side, after 23 years of marriage, and 6 kids, it wa an affair with my best friend, who had become her best friend that locked us out of being healed from some of our earlier failures. So by my thinking, it't time for her and him to either move in or nove on. No jealousy needed in this situation, he needs to chose who he wants. BTW I don't even think this is close to being negotiable, in fact I will state absolutely, it's not neqotiable, he needs to chose and then end the relationship that isn't goijng to move forward. I'm not often black and white about things, but this is one I am absolute about. |

Let me say that this blog was birthed out of frustrations and anger. And I in no way helped the situation. For you see, I was unwilling to compromise with the one I call my love. Sometimes we must do things which do not make sense, but God has an ultimate plan. Thank you Love...for being open and honest when I was being stubborn. I love you so much.
