I have a girlfriend and I feel really ermm, kinda of insecure.

It's not that I don't trust her, I really do, and she's great and awesome and a much better person that I am, for putting up with me. But it's just that when she's talking to other guys a lot, and they're getting on quite well, it just makes me feel uncomfortable and I usually can't think of anything else to say to her, which only really contributes to the problem.

I think it's usually because - from what she tells me - they always talk about things that I don't know about, or they're just generally better than I am.

I mean I'm pretty ugly and they're usually relatively cute/hot in some form.

And it just makes me think, like, she'd have much more in common with him, or him, or him, and it makes me uncomfortable. Nauseous uncomfortable.

I really really don't wanna be that jealous type guy that everybody hates and I always tell myself I'm being stupid but at times I go to bed with that feeling and it's horrible.

Even when she needs help, I'm stressing. For example, recently, her laptop went kaput, and she left me texts like, "amg, help, we really need to talk", and I was brown-trousering. I had to get a toastie and watch a movie to distract myself for the hour it took her to call me back.

Is this what a relationship is meant to feel like? 'cause honestly, it seems kinda overrated.
