TIFU by not completely trusting my GF. Because sometimes I act like a little boy in a man’s body.
So I’ve acted insecure and weird about my GF’s past relationships. When someone from her past comes up I always act stupid and go quiet.
So today we were having drinks with some friends when I spotted an IG influencer my GF really likes. I pointed her out and we go say hi and bye and thanks for your time (about 2 minutes).
When we get back she says to our friends she actually knows the guy because they used to chat and nothing ever happened but that’s why she knows that girl. Not from being a legit fan. Anyway I get upset and stupid. By being quiet and withdrawn. For like an hour. It sets the tone for the day and we are upset at each other.
When we get home she says this can’t happen again and says she is confused and doesn’t see a way forward. I tell her sorry again (because I’ve done this before, acted weird after finding something about her past)
So I’m broken right now and not sure if she will break up with me. This is my big flaw. My trust issues.
Let me state she is wonderful and the best person I’ve ever met. We love each other deeply and I even moved cities for her.
I don’t know what to do.
TLDR: I fucked up by not trusting my GF again about something silly from her past.
Edit: after a long Sunday of honest and open conversations things seem to be ok now (Monday morning). I am in the process of signing up for online therapy through Better life and will have a few sessions to scope it out.
Thanks to everyone who took time to write back and sorry if I haven’t replied to your comment yet. I’ll try get to it. Happy ending for now. Thank you squad : )
