Welcome to the board mtnrunninggirl273,


Even brothers and sisters probably don't text and call as often as this 'sister' calls your husband.

My boyfriend has 2 very close female friends. That he talks to/texts very often because we live in another state. He goes back home frequently and I used to hate hearing that he was with them. But then I had to think about it, I have many close male friends that I call and text often and hang out with without my BF.
So, unless your husband has given you a reason to be truely concerned they may very well be just close friends.

I don't blame you for being upset by this. This contact with her does seem to be a little too often.


Have you ever met her? Maybe it would help if you did.

Don't let her get between you and your husband. It seems like that is what she is trying to do. Don't let her win. It sounds like you two need to find a compromise on this. Tell him that you will be okay with him talking to her, if he can limit it to a couple times a week.

At this point it is completely out of my hands.

Has he ever broken your trust in the past with other women? Is it possible that you may have become overly sensitive to this situation with no *real* reason? I ask these questions because there is a fine line between irrational jealousy and legitimate concern, and that line is a bit ambiguous at the moment.


My assertion is that if there is no truly legitimate cause for alarm other than frequent communication and "love ya's" and "miss ya's" (that are actually pretty typical in any friendship- particularly friendships between males and females), I have to ask why did you decide to go ahead
