Is it because you are not trustworthy yourself and you apply that to your GF? Do you distrust other people around you and is this problem bigger than just this relationship? Are you just thinking about her cheating or do you think also about her lying to you or her not loving you? Is it possible you have a fear of abandonment and you are just wired to question her commitment to you? More important is what you do with these questions I think. If you make the descision to trust her, are you able to stick with it? Because most people sometimes question the people around them. what counts is what you do with the answers. Are you able to let it go? Are you able to stay realistic and not overpowerd by your fears and thoughts?

Thinking your girlfriend is cheating is often a sign of insecurity in a relationship. You should talk through your worries with her and try to work out the problems that led you to believe she was cheating. You could always start with “We need to talk..” or another “cliche”, and they’re cliches because they work. Try not to bring it up when you’re angry or acting irrationally because it could cause you to jump to conclusions or say things you normally wouldn’t. Discuss it with a clear head and make sure to convey your emotions and feelings. Good luck, and hopefully you work things out! :)

Sometimes we get a little self conscious about ourselves and project it on other people. We may think we're not enough for the person we love but we still want them around so we may try to anticipate things that my equate to them breaking up or leaving. Like one time, when I was younger, I had this best friend who I loved to death. However, whenever she went to hang out with other people I got mad and accused her of not wanted to be my friend and I she wants to be with them so bad then just leave me alone. In the end, we ended up staying friends but I realised the errors of my ways and the projection of my own fears on her. The best thing to do is just talk to your girlfriend and hopefully not lash out. Especially if she's innocent.

This could be down to a variety of different reasons but ultimately a big reason for this would be a lack of trust in your relationship. Think about whether she's ever done anything to make that trust break between you? You could try and discuss it with her and ask her what she thinks. It's unhealthy to always be paranoid or scared for your partner- it's best that you confront the problem face on as it could be a simple miscommunication or mistake that you've just misinterpreted. Long term distrust can leave a lasting wound on a relationship if not fixed.

Perhaps this is a form of nervousness or anxiety. You could ask her to discuss these subjects in a non-judgemental manner and share your concerns. It is most likely that this is in your mind, and she is not cheating. But it is best to have a strong communication within your relationship. Wether it’s over the phone or in person, it is best to let her know that you are not assuming anything, but you have had a few thoughts that she may be with another person. If she becomes angry or upset with you, try to empathise with her and understand that you still appreciate her and are just concerned for your relationship.

My boyfriend (well now ex boyfriend) of 2 years, I just broke up with him a week ago. He is 33, I am 25. We met on the mountain, ski coaching to be exact. After one year, we moved in together. We both were ready for it. And let me say, he was the easiest and most compatible person that I have ever lived with (and I have had around 15 different roommates in 5 years). We never bickered about anything, our relationship just felt more important to me to let little things get in the way. Summer was great, we spent almost every free moment on the lake, enjoying each others time and relaxing, until he meets his ex at a bar they exchange contacts, he starts spending more time on his phone than me, he refuse to visit the same bar with me, he starts giving silly excuses, then he didn’t come home one night and he didn’t even bothered to inform. This is when I knew something is wrong, I hired HACKERTHON @ OUTLOOK. COM to help hack his phone so I can know why my boyfriend is being distracted, all thanks to hackerthon he was the one who made me realise my boyfriend is now in a serious thing with his ex. Thanks to Hackerthon @ outlook. com who made me avoid a future heartbreak .

It sounds like you have a feeling of some doubt, but I reassure you assumptions aren’t always good, sometimes they have a negative affect. You should just have a chat with her and let her know what your feeling. I believe that self doubt can be a very challenging thing, but not impossible. Doubt can really affect your perspective on certain things. They can also put uncertain answers in your mind. I’ve personally can connect with this feeling. I use to think I was different and didn’t have self confidence. I was very timid and assumed I was weird, but only to find out I had lied to myself by making assumptions. So I encourage you to speak with your girlfriend, I really do hope everything works out.

This is one of the most difficult feelings to navigate because sometimes, the dissonance that occurs between the mind - racing with mistrustful thoughts, which may or may not stem from past experiences - and the heart - which isn’t data based, and in my experience, rarely, if ever doubts the goodness within - is loud. The disagreement between what we feel we want and love (connection, affection, companionship), and what we sometimes think in vulnerable moments we don’t deserve, can cause a great deal of anxiety. It’s as if the mind and heart speak different languages. But it bears mentioning that Always’ feeling mistrustful is not caused by another person’s actions (unless that other person is actively behaving in a way that makes you feel as if cheating is a possibility), but on our own fear of being ‘gamed’. ‘Bamboozled’ ‘Ghosted’. ‘Breadcrumbed’. Left alone. Abandoned. Not comforted. Not good enough: All the things that every social being fears. We all have these fears. And unfortunately, the ‘you’re not good enough’ message is ubiquitous; people who feel not good enough consume more. I digress. Perhaps it’s ‘not cool’ to voice our fears, as we’re conditioned to be stoic and confidant and fearless; to just not let the ‘you’re not good enough’ stuff get to you. And sometimes, it’s best to deal with our own insecurities and fears privately. But to connect with others, we have to be our imperfect and vulnerable selves. And to do this, we must embrace our power to create connection through good and honest communication in our relationships. Being able to share honestly and openly can bring two people closer together. So long as there is active listening and good overall communication. Sometimes, yes, we do find ourselves in situations with another where the fears or insecurities or mistrust of one might be ‘too much to handle’ for the other. But regardless, a conversation about it allows for forward movement and potential internal growth of both people. It takes courage to admit to a partner that we aren’t perfect and that we’re afraid of losing them. It shows vulnerability but being vulnerable means one has strength to face something in themselves that many spend their whole lives avoiding. So if you’re always thinking your partners cheating, open up a gentle line of communication about it.

i guess this is insecurity. you might be feeling that one day she will leave you. this kind of feeling enters in mind when one thinks that he has no extra or enough confidence. here are two moments. one where the person has done something in the past which hurts you. or you feel bothered about her. situations never remain same. so it depends on you. you can start a fresh life by just completing destroying your old belief set. what you are doing is sticking to an old set and just about them again and again. so have a fresh start.
