To Janice

Quote From: janice1018

 I have a friend that lives in another state.  She seems to constantly have this need to connect with my boyfriend.  Now, my boyfriend has cheated on me in the past and we broke up.  We worked things out and things are much better and I do trust him.  She knows all of this past drama.  First I found an ecard that she sent him with a naked woman on it....saying, " I started without you".  Her and I discussed that one and I had to explain to her that was not appropriate to send to someone else's boyfriend.  She said she was sorry and she didnt know.  Then about 6 months later, I found another ecard from her to him with little floating hearts back and forth saying "how well they fit together".  I then had to discuss that with her as well.  Again, she didnt know this was wrong.  When I find all of these cards from her, I also search out to see what he sends back and I cant find where he is sending anything to her.  Now, she does not have a cpr anymore and she has taken it upon herself to start calling him almost everyday.  She still calls me, but calls him on his cell when he is at work.  Again, I cant see where he is the one calling her.  Now, I wouldnt even think about calling one of my friends boyfriends or husbands on a regular basis.  Nor, would I ever send them such ecards.  So I am wondering am I just being jealous?  I used to have such a jealousy problem and I have worked very hard on it.  I dont want to be over-reacting.  But, it just doesnt feel right to me.

Dear Janice 

I had to write after reading your message.  You are NOT overreacting and you are NOT jealous.  Over-reacting, jealous...this sounds exactly like what someone like your friend would say to try to make it look like it is YOU with the problem when it is their behavior that is wrong.  I don't believe that she didn't know the cards were inappropriate.  Even if you gave her the benefit of having not known with the first one, then why did she continue to send more cards after you told her it bothered you? You say you can't find anything to indicate that he is calling her or sending cards to her.  But there is something he isn't doing that he should do and that is to tell her to stop contacting him.  If he isn't willing to do this then I see lots of red flags going up. Especially since he already has the history of cheating.  If he really cares about your feelings he would not accept any more phone calls and should not open any e-cards he gets from her.  If he is not willing to do this for you I would seriously question  this relationship.  It isn't worth it if he does not give top priority to your feelings and well-being.Also, you certainly don't need this girl for a friend.  I'd show her the door really quick, and if it hits her in the butt on the way out..well, she deserves it!  You sound like a good hearted person.  You deserve so much better for yourself.
