so my boyfriend of four years has a friend at work that they're very close with she is a girl I've never had insecurities before up until now I know nothing is going on but she's just a very needy person because she doesn't have that many friends due to you know mental health issues and like genetic issues where she needs to rely on people a lot but she has openly stated to me that she has gotten herself in the situation where she becomes overly attached to the friendship with a guy girl or whatever to the point where their partner has wanted to physically harm her because she doesn't know how to step back and set boundaries she's currently doing this with my boyfriend and we are talking about setting boundaries but the fact that she's aware of it and doesn't seem to want to stop really bothers me and I don't know what to do

You seem like a nice person, you know And I completely understand what you're saying because there was this girl like this in my boyfriend's life But she was probably way worse than the girl you were talking about me personally I don't want to say like tell him who he could be friends with But she caused us issues for like a whole year of our relationship and now that she's not around We are doing way better than we were ever doing when she was if that makes sense

Do you trust your boyfriend, has nothing to do with the other woman, has nothing wrong with guys having female friends and has nothing wrong with girls having guy friends? Do you trust him not to cheat on you with her? At the end of the night, at the end of the day, he comes home to you, think about that.
