I just have a passion for my own partner sooo much and thus he is indeed awesome for me. I really like just about everything around him. The only problem though, is he is friends with way too many girls and I don’t like knowing that he could be talking to a number of young ladies besides myself. I hate being jealous. I’m trying to just ignore the jealousy but I can’t. Please help me out. Thanks.
