My roommate and I are both professionals in our twenties. She has trouble in the guy department and gets jealous of me whenever guys pay more attention to me. I have recently started dating a great guy, and we all have mutual friends. My roommate has started, as she always does, trying to make me jealous by saying she sees him at the gym flirting with everyone, including her, that he came in to see her at work (she manages a golf course and he golfs), etc. And when he comes over, she tries to subtly put me down by telling embarrassing stories about me, or by saying, "Chole gets SO MAD if I leave my dishes in the sink," things like that that aren't even true. If I call her out on it she'll just laugh. I am hesitant to talk to her about it, since I know she'll turn it around and maybe even tell my boyfriend and our friends that I'm jealous. I'm optimistic about this relaitonship and think it has potential to go somewhere, and I don't want her to sabotage it. How should I handle her?
