My Boyfriend Thinks Every Guy Wants Me
Boys Just Wanna Have Fun!
Ever since I started dating my boyfriend, he’s been paranoid that every guy who looks my way is interested in me. This is especially true when I’m out in public, since he’s convinced that everyone notices me and is trying to steal me away. It’s not that I don’t understand his point of view, but it can be really tiring to constantly be on alert waiting for someone to hit on me.
There have been several occasions when I’ve had to tell my boyfriend that no, no one is trying to take me away from him. But, it doesn’t stop him from worrying. And, I certainly don’t blame him – I’d be worried too if I were in his shoes. It’s just that it can be a bit overwhelming having to be so vigilant all the time.
The truth is, most guys are just looking for a good time. They’re out for their own amusement, and not necessarily looking for a relationship. So, it’s a bit silly for my boyfriend to worry so much. It’s not that I can’t take care of myself, but it would be nice if he could understand that not everyone is out to steal me away.
Oh, the Attention I Get!
I’m not sure why my boyfriend’s so paranoid, but I think it’s because I get a lot of attention. I’m not trying to brag, but I’m tall and pretty, and guys seem to be drawn to that. I can’t help it if I’m attractive, but it’s starting to get a bit annoying with my boyfriend’s constant worrying.
I’ve tried to explain to him that most of the attention I get is harmless. But, he still doesn’t seem to believe me. He’s convinced that there are hordes of guys just waiting in the wings for me to break up with him. I wish he would trust me, but it’s hard when he’s so convinced that I’m going to be stolen away at any moment.
The thing is, I’m not interested in any of the attention. Not that I don’t appreciate it, I’m just not interested in pursuing anyone else. I’m committed to my boyfriend, and I’m not planning on leaving him anytime soon. So, why can’t he just relax and trust me?
It’s not easy being in a relationship with someone who’s so overprotective and suspicious, but I’m trying to be understanding. I know he’s just trying to look out for me, and I appreciate it. I just wish he would stop worrying so much and trust me to handle myself.
