Dear Priscilla, I'm in a relationship where my boyfriend and I quarrel almost every day. The issue is that he chats with other women, and I get jealous. He says I don't trust him, but I'm scared of losing him.
Published on November 21, 2019, a relationship expert advised that the biggest problem here is setting boundaries. If something makes you uncomfortable, your partner should respect that, especially if it's preventable.
Have a conversation with your partner about why he's texting other women and why you feel jealous. Are you actually jealous, or do you just need reassurance? Discuss this with yourself as well, as it speaks to a deeper esteem problem.
As you establish boundaries, also establish that there are consequences to actions. If one partner keeps doing something the other partner doesn't like, and you have a discussion, and something doesn't change, this could lead to the end of a relationship.
