He's always saying that there's nothing he's hiding and he only loves ME and that he's very attracted to me physically and mentally.

I've been talking about this with my therapist, but it's like I still have this voice in my head that screams "HE'S MINE AND NOBODY BUT ME HAS THE RIGHT TO TALK TO, TOUCH OR EVEN LOOK AT HIM!". And I'm always thinking that he'll eventually leave me for someone else.

I think it's hard not only on me but on him as well. That's why it comes up in therapy. Part of me wants to be in a healthy relationship with a reasonable amount of jealousy. I know it's all about self-esteem (which I have very little) and trust (unfortunately TRUST NO ONE has been my motto for way to long).

It's definitely something to really work on. It takes time.

Yep I hate FB and have the same feelings and emotions you are describing. What I have to figure out now is if the "She is mine and should be committed only to me" is a belief system or BPD. I don't have an issue with a woman I am in a relationship having friends of the opposite sex, there just have to be clear boundaries and I have to be with someone trustworthy. I know that does exsist and is possible. But again I hate FB!

Thanks for this!
