Has he done this to you in the past? If so and you took her back, then you have to learn to trust or walk away. Without trust you don't have a good foundation to build on.

Dont let such thoughts eat you up from inside. Be open with your girlfriend. Share your thoughts with her.

Sometimes if we are insecure about ourselves we tend to worry about what others do, maybe you should sit down and talk to her about it and how you feel

It's normal to get those feelings, maybe you could try to talk to your girlfriend about it.

This could be displaying your trust issues, she very well could be cheating, and if that is the case I would not stay with them. But if she states she is not cheating and seems to not be lying, don't go and send a team of people to see if she really is, simply believe in her statement

This is perfectly normal it can happen to anyone. This mostly happens because you might be having some trouble with your self esteem... You might think you're not good enough and so your girlfriend will find someone better and cheat on you. But the principles of every relationship are trust and honesty. So tell her how you feel and try to trust her more. Relax a little bit. And if something really happens then you know she wasn't the right girl for you. You deserve someone who loves you endlessly and who channels such confidence to you that you never think she's cheating. 💓

That's probably because of the things you see your girlfriend doing, or the feelings she expresses. But don't let those things get in the way of your relationship. You have to trust each other, even if it feels like they are cheating.

Is it possible you have been cheated on in the past? Perhaps this person is doing things which remind you of things your cheating ex did. This could either mean that you have learned the signs of a cheater, or that you are simply assuming things based upon seeing things that look similar in this girl. Is it possible she has done something very subtle that hints that she is cheating, even though it isn't direct or obvious? I'd say the best thing is to politely and gently ask her about it. Don't assume the worst. You might be able to tell by the way she answers.

Sounds like anxiety. Sometimes our thoughts get the best of us, but isn't always right. Anxiety like to play tricks on us I would have a nice talk with your girlfriend.

Let's rearrange that to boyfriend. So a little background I met my bf 7ish years ago. We had a short break, about a year to be exact, due to cheating. I mean it was mostly online companionship, trading of pics and videos, and one meet up where he semi-acted on his desires. I was so paranoid for years. I always thought he was cheating, I would go through his phone. I would cringe every time I heard a ringtone that wasn't familiar. He changed his tones up a lot to keep me off his trail. The thing is I was so worried yet I wasn't truly sharing that with him. Now to be fair it turned out that I have Bipolar and that had a part to play in my paranoia, due to not being treated. I started treatment and began to feel better but by that point he was to far long gone. Now that we are back together we took a new approach, direct communication. Having direct, honest, and open communication is the foundation of a relationship. Anytime I have a suspicion I ask, it calms me down and my parnoia subsides, yes I still suffer from paranoia to an extent. It doesn't follow me anymore, that could be the treatment or it could be the open communication. I'd like to think it is a combination of both. Become self aware of who you are and the role you play in this. That will help a lot, plus partners tend to appreciate self-reflection. Once done start an open dialogue. Explain why you feel this way. It may be because yall don't talk enough, maybe because yall don't spend enough time together, or possible your intimacy department has changed. It's ok. This is normal. Many people struggle with this. Take it a step at a time and don't overthink it if you want to salvage the relationship. I know I know that is easier said than done. You can do it!!! Good luck to anyone dealing with a fear of cheating situaitinon.
