I had a bad cubicle job that I was stuck with for a couple of years. Worst couple of years of my life, or at least my adult life. I sympathize. Also, a bad job is about the worst thing in the world when you're anxious about something, especially if you're just sitting there turning things over in your mind. Been there, and it's not fun.

Speaking from a male perspective, I can perhaps offer some "insider" advice. If you ask about people from work, and especially if you use phrases such as "cute girls", he will see right through your routine. But then again, that's not necessarily a bad thing. It might reassure him that you care about your relationship...remember that insecurity can cut both ways. Of couse I wouldn't go overboard or anything...I'm not sure if you ask these kinds of questions often, but too much interrogation would definitely cause problems.

And there's something you need to keep in mind about cheating: if someone is going to cheat on their sig. other, they are going to do it no matter what the situation. It's not a matter of being dropped into the wrong circumstances. If that's who they are, they'll find somebody to cheat with. So I think you shouldn't dwell too much on this job change. If he hasn't cheated on you yet, then that's a good sign...and if he ever does, it's not something you can control. Remember, it's next to impossible to resolve anxiety issues over things we can't control, unless we accept the fact that we can't control them.
