Agreed.

I love my girlfriend but she is destroying the relationship because of her jealousy. Examples: 1) I viewed a house with a view to buy it. It happened to be near a girl I once knew (not as a lover). That girl does not even live nearby anymore, but my girlfriend screamed at me that I wanted to be near her. It's ridiculous. 2) Sometimes too tired to make love. Reaction? 'You love someone else, don't you?' Then pillows rain down on me.

Wot I gonna do?
Put out more.

Choices:

1. couples' counseling
2. dump her
3. dump her and tell her she needs counseling
4. tell her that if she's that suspicious, perhaps she's the one with something to hide
terrible advice.
Edit: all you have to do is constantly make her feel special.

Not interested in 'one on the side'. Love my girlfriend. Her jealousy is completely illogical. There must be a way.
talk to her sincerely and convince her that her jealousy is unfounded. go out of your way to ensure she can feel confident of you - spend more time with her, take her out more, that sort of thing...


Smack her upside the head and tell her to make you some pie.

Honesty is the best policy. Tell her that her actions are hurting the relationship. Re-assure her that you are loyal. Feed her some chocolate. Give it some time. If it continues then it just won't work. You will end up resenting her so just be honest with her and tell her how you feel about her jealousy.

That's the problem. It continues. I've tried all you suggest. She relapses.

She does not love you dude. She just wants to control you.

Demand constant backdoor action until she leaves.
