my insecurity (?) over my girlfriend's past boyfriend...!!!! HELP?

Question

my exe's bf is a hare kshna. she left him a year ago or more and is not a krshna herself but does yoga, eats veggie, and wears symbols and decorates her house with hindu symbolism. i hate it. it makes me suspicious event though she is the most dedicated girlfriend on earth. am i wrong in feeling like this?

Answer 1

No it's not wrong, and what you're feeling is completely understandable. However, you have to move past these emotions if you want to continue being in a healthy relationship.

The reason why you fell in love with your girlfriend is because of who she is. Her past experiences and ex-boyfriends made her the person she is today. Try to accept and respect her passions. In fact, you might even want to try practicing yoga with her, eating vegetarian food and appreciating Hindu philosophy. Instead of turning yourself away from the things she loves to do, try doing them together. Who knows, you might enjoy it?

However, if it's not really your thing, introduce her to YOUR passions that you can share-- it could be rock climbing, painting, surfing, anything!

Good luck :)

Answer 2

depends on the girl, a girl who really likes a guy will never look the other way, when i am in love, brad pitt could walk in the room and not even distract me from my boyfriend. hire a hare to pop out of a cake and see if she goes for him, then you will be able to tell. tell your woman of your insecurities. a nice woman will listen and explain, if he dumped her and not the other way around, she may run back to him when he becomes available again.

Answer 3

it is normal to be worried about this. It sounds like a new experience for you. If you really care about her, then you need to try and learn what you can about her views on things and maybe that will help you feel better about your relationship and the way she is.
