So, my 1 month old gf is out on a trip where she was supposed to meet up with a few guy friends of her and today she uploads a pic of a guy holding her by her waist really tight. That makes me feel uncomfortable even though I hate the idea of being jealous. Is that normal? Should she have allowed him till the waist?

@St0rm,
You've been a girl for a month?

Is it 'talk like a Pirate day' already?

@St0rm,
"Jealousy" is often the word we use so as to avoid use of the word "insecure."

None of us want to feel jealousy...or insecurity, but those feelings are a part of being a human. How we handle them is probably a more meaningful area to explore.

(Seemingly an aside: May I ask you if you have brothers...and the age difference between you and them?)

(I am going to guess that you have younger brothers...and that the age difference is not great.)

@Frank Apisa,
Totally wrong! I have an older brother and the age difference is a lot! But it still dosent help me. Is it just me who feels letting someone other guy hold u by the waist is a little out of line?
Confused on how to handle it, I don't want her to change coz of my jealousy.
Also, I am not insecure, she is with me coz she wants to amd I am not at all worried of her ditching me

@St0rm,
Did you tell your new girlfriend that there are only certain ways other men can hold/touch her?

This could just be a sign of friendship.
Or she might not have been able to avoid it.

Then you need to set some boundaries as ehbeth was alluding to.
Let her know what makes you uncomfortable

@ehBeth,
I would hate the idea of telling her what to do and what not. Btw that guy has a crush on her and she knows it.

@St0rm,
The other guy's crush is irrelevant.

He's not part of the relationship between you and your girlfriend.

You and your girlfriend need to talk honestly about what you are both comfortable with.

Age and confidence usually makes this stuff easier, but you've still got to set boundaries that work for both of you.

You may need to accept that your girlfriend's comfort level/confidence is different from yours.

Right now, work on being happy she chose to be with you at this time.

Okay...I realized I could be very wrong. It was just a guess.

In a very small sample size, I've noticed that older brothers tend to be more possessive of women than younger...which was the reason for my guess.

@St0rm,
They are playing with you to see how you react.

Be wise.

Do not complaint, just say that she looks beautiful in the picture and ignore the guy.

If something else gives you reasons to doubt about her, then you talk first and put what your position of a relationship is about.

This is just a starting relationship, and mistakes will be made the whole journey. Better to fix them than terminate them without chance of recovery. Unless your girl is not in the move to be your girl, only your girl.
