My girlfriend and I have been together for 7 months now, she is a freshmen in college and im 21 in the same college. when we began to get serious about the relationship, she tells me that my past of random hookups and sex with other girls was something she was having a very hard time getting over. She has had previous history as well, but I got over it. I realize that that was the past and that she is with me now, and thats all that matters. I imagine a very happy future with her and I want to spend the rest of my life with her. However, she does not take my past in the same manner. Just about a month ago, her problem with my past has gotten alot worse. She tells me that she sees me and imagines me having intercourse with other girls. It brings alot of pain to her.

I keep reminding her that they meant nothing to me, but she insists on telling me that i enjoyed it and want it again. I found out that she is going through depression, and had a history of clinical depression when she was in highschool. She started to see a psychiatrist and recognizes that she has a disorder.

At times she tells me very hurtful things, that we are over, and that it could never work out between us. Then after a day or two she tells me that she can not live without me. I understand that she is not herself when shes saying those hurtful things, and im being very patient with her, letting her know that im always going to be there for her no matter what and that she is the world to me.

Is there anyone who has experienced the same thing or similar...or anyone who can shed some light on what im going through? this girl is important to me. we laugh together alot and get along extemely well. just that when she is reminded of my past she gets all these negative thoughts and wants to break up. ...help
