• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Ok well basically i dont know how to put this, hi first of all.
My girlfriend (of 7 months now) used to fancy this guy whilst we were going out. Also she messed up a load of times with stuff (like lying to me on massive stuff for attention) and each time i forgave her. But tomorrow we're going to party which i just like wanted to be me and her (not for any reason, just like to be with her) and she invited the guy she used to fancy. the guy she used to fancy is also my best friend. and also she invited him to help setup. and she didnt even tell me. Now this just seems too much because i used to have ocd and it bugs me how they get on well and everything and im just worried about it and i dont know why. it just seems im never getting any of this "peace" which is talked about so much in the bible. it just seems im a jealous idiot who cant trust his girlfriend, it would have been a lot easier if God hadnt made this happen, but how can it help if im just worried all the time? and why does it always seem im on a downward spiral?

i just wanna feel some of that peace that is talked about in the bible cuz even now i can leave her with him but it hurts loads and i get worried.

i am pretty sure its me who is being irrational.

i feel like such an idiot, i just wish things were easier, why is life so hard?

There is not a single square foot on earth where there is peace, everwhere on earth is annoyance. Dump your gf, you clearly are 'second' best in her life, whilst you should be Nr.1 on the top of her list. She probably only is with you so she can be as close as possible with that other guy. Imagine yourself married with a woman that constantly wants another guy? You can't well thats why you two should break up.

I think you know where you are at with this one. I'd cut my losses if I were you. What use is a girlfriend you don't trust?You wouldn't marry her would you?Look elsewhere.
