Dating and Paranoia

So during the school year the only person I really talk to on instant message constantly is my cousin's boyfriend, Jonathan. He never really talks to anyone at his college, so we talk 24/7 in a pretty much ongoing conversation.

One night he told me that Caitlin (his girlfriend, my cousin) had been paranoid lately because she thought there was something happening between us. I just started laughing because both of us had noticed long ago that it wouldn't work, and that we're better off as friends and all that junk. Sure, she has a right to be paranoid...and I'm sure she's not the only girl in a relationship to think that her boyfriend may be interested in another girl (aka me and a different girl from his college). I know now that Caitlin's not paranoid about us two anymore because we're just good friends is all and we tell each other just about everything like they do, with the exception of we're not the ones who are dating. :lol:

I was paranoid a bit (well...a LOT) with my ex because he seemed more friendly with this one girl friend of mine...and I guess I had somewhat of a right to be paranoid because now THEY are dating. Sad and uncanny how these things happen, huh? :no: They claimed they didn't want to hurt me when they got together, but the damage had already been done and now I'm not friends with either of them.

Has anyone had a similar experience with relationship paranoia?

Maybe you should tell her to get a grip and you should cool it , after all family is for ever .

UNGH!
Hold on a sec. Let me turn off the neon light on my forehead that says
"PARANOID" in flashing red letters. ;)

Oh Bug. I'd say it's normal to be a little paranoid especially if you're in a new relationship. But I've heard that if you love and trust someone implicitly and vice versa of course, paranoia should not even be an issue.

:shrug: But that's just what I hear.

That explains the request for a background check and three references before you'll go on a first date.

Often being paranoid is indicative of the fact that you secretly mistrust someone but don't want to admit it.

It can also be a symptom of one's own insecurity , maybe Cous' doesn't think the boyfriend is as interested in her as she would like.

Maybe Cous' should have a heart to heart with the boy , the worse thing that can happen is they breakup and that wont be the end of the earth.

Oh trust me, they've had plenty of heart-to-hearts since then,

and no, I never fully trusted my ex, and I didn't trust myself, so none of it was a good mix.
