I am having a really hard time dealing with and getting over my girlfriends sexual past. She was very promiscuous in college and has had many partners (we didn't divulge specific numbers). We have been done with college for a year and have been together for six months now and we are extremely happy. I trust her completely and she is more than open and honest with me, but I still can't get past the fact that she has slept with so many men. I want very badly, for the health of our relationship, to be able to get over it, or at least deal effectively with it so it doesn't become a detriment to our relationship. Any ideas or suggestions? Anybody else experienced this? All advice is welcome.

Thanks,

James

Siouxfan, there's no quick fix for this problem. It will take effort to change your feelings about this but it CAN be done. IF you want to keep this person in your life, then it MUST be done. Focus on what you have together, and the difference you, and her child, have made for her. And be grateful that you've found a friend to love.
