And not coincidentally, the vast majority of people on this planet are complete idiots.

Hardly the few. I don't know a single person in real life that believe men and women can't be friends, nor do I know anyone that doesn't have friends of both genders.

I refuse to be friends with limited IQ cretins. Thankfully, since I avoid living in the armpits of America, I don't generally run into such ignoramuses.

What does that have to do with anything? I'm dating someone. What our agreement is really isn't your business.

well, we must be in the minority because I have many male friends and my husband has many female friends. It's really not a big deal. This whole post amuses me and irks me. People are so silly. It's like guys who think every gay man wants them. But OP, please break up with this girl - who has done nothing wrong, by the way - so she can live her life without someone like you around. You are apt to drive many women insane. But maybe that's what you want, so you can have someone completely beholden to you, kept by you indoors, without the threat of the big bad world out there and dare I say, people of the opposite sex.

It doesn't particularly matter what a bunch of other people on the internet say or even what the life coach's intentions are. The OP, in particular, doesn't trust his girlfriend to speak to another man without jumping into bed with him. That's not the foundation of a strong, healthy relationship.

It's great you guys all have your own standards you live to and have found what works best for yourselves.

Gold star for you, keep it up.

The OP's issue isn't that he feels this way, it's that he feels this way with someone who doesn't feel the same back.

He is putting himself in his own self made hell then attempting to fix it by "fixing" the others behavior.

Round and round we go.

Exactly. I got over my insecure, jealous, possessive a-hole phase when I was 20. I had to learn the hard way but glad I did.
