I would like to open my situation up for discussion and suggestions. I have an annoying inability to deal (cope) well with social situations at times, and I am wondering if anyone would care to advise. When at a party or out with friends and my girlfriend, something small will happen and I will not be able to let it go. Usually it has to do with how my girlfriend is acting, maybe I feel left out and then I get sullen. It is my inability to get over these situations that is driving my girlfriend away from me. I do not wish for this to happen so I am striving to overcome these petty problems. My biggest challenge right now is gathering of tools that I may use to realize that small things are small and I should not dwell. I would love any comments, and am interested in talking about it as it has already helped.

My thanks to Rapunzel for her kind words and ability to lend an ear when needed.

Help!!
