Well I thought the jelousy thing with my Husband was over. Wishful thinking! On the weekend we went out golfing with friends and had a few drinks etc...at the end of the night my H wasn't even talking to me, he wouldn't tell me whats wrong - just that you better watch what line you cross, I was so upset I went and slept with my daughter. So the next day I pulled it out of him. When I was getting out of our friends truck, our friend (the guy)was holding the seat forward, I said "I can't get out of here - its too tight here - laughing" He said to me - No I think its b/c your butts too big," we were laughing away, my H was a ways away and his take is that he thought he said "here I'll help you out" and he grabbed my AS*. He can't even trust me! It is so frustrating! And even if he did - its not like I would go and sleep with the guy, and I would say something to him. <BR>He did end up apologizing but it is so frustrating to have someone not trust you. I am so tired of this. I told him that I think he better stop having so many drinks when we go out b/c it just seems to make him think more jelous thoughts. I am getting so sick of this, I would like to go out and have a good time without worrying about everything I say and do. He stopped being jelous for a while and it seems like it has come back again.! ARRRGH!

Hi Fed Up, sorry to hear your H had to ruin your night out. I sure know how that is... Sounds exactly like a conversation my H and I have had so many times. Its so silly, why cant they see how ridiculous they are being? Were you able to get your H to take any of these quizes yet? I'm still trying to find the time to ask my H b/c we dont see much of each other thru the week. But anyways, just wanted to say Hi, if you find any answers let me know too ok? Have a good week!

Thanks for replying Lynn<BR>No way my H will take these quizes, have you been able to ask yours yet? It is so stupid, I still can't believe the ideas he comes up with. He is over it now. Things have been good for the last couple of days. Hopefully it will continue throught to the weekend-being mothers day and all. Think I will avoid going out with any couples this weekend, we are going to try and have a night out alone on friday. Have a good weekend!

I get jealous we all get jealous.<P>What if some young old girl in a sun dress was leaning over on crutches in front of your husband saying can you help me fix my sandle, while you could see that her top was drooping so he could see down it, and he went down to help her tie her sandle, laughed and said, "I dunno it might be a little tough getting it on like that."<P>YOu would probably be a little pissed at him for paying attention to someone else that you thought was taking his attention away from you, or that he was being as silly as that.<P>Maybe you should try and address why your men feel so insecure in the first place... Maybe you are not meeting their needs somehow. Do you honestly think that a person would be insecure when they were being showered with affection and praise constantly? Why don't your men think that you love them that they get worried whenever you are having fun with other people or other men?<P>Its deeper than just jelousy. Other factors are contributing to his behavior.<P>My wife doesn't show me that she loves me or that what I think is important to her. She thinks that I am just trying to control her. BUT its just the opposite. I wish she would talk more control in our marriage, I wish she would spend more time with me telling me what to do. I would love for her to come home and tell me that she wants ME to do something with her that she had planned.<BR>

To your question do I think somebody would be jelous if they were showered with affection constantly - well I have done that and my H is still jelous, he was a jelous person before I met him and he still is. He gets jelous over absoloutely nothing. He gets jelous from me looking at someone the wrong way. I truly believe it is due to an insecurity of his which he had Before he met me. <BR>I do show my H alot of affection - i think at times too much, and he knows that I do think his thoughts are important.<BR>I am sorry that your wife doesn't, have you told her that you would love her to come tell you to do something that she would like to do too?
