Thank you, great answer and made me think

Makes sense. How about a weekend trip to see another female friend, would you be ok with that?

Oh okay, that’s a long time, I wouldn’t be ok with that but understand others are

Sorry, I meant your female partner seeing wither female friend, or male partner seeing a male friend

Yeah I agree. I’m working on building trust on him to get to that point

True

Thank you. I aspire to that, but we’ve been together a year and I’m anxious about him doing a solo trip at least right now, I do hope that changes soon

I was thinking more like a weekend trip to see a friend or a short work trip, how would you feel about that? I feel I want to be with my partner all the time, including travel no matter how short or long, but I know that can be a bit much for some people. We are 1 year into our relationship and had some trust issues so I’m hoping I feel different in a few months

Just how you would feel if she wants to go on a weekend trip to see a friend for example. I am a jealous person and even though I know my partner is a good man, I would still feel anxious and scared that he is out flirting. I know it’s unhealthy but that’s how I feel. I want to go everywhere with him and I wish he felt the same way, but I know how possessive that sounds

Yeah, I’m trying to work on not feeling so anxious about him going on an alone trip occasionally. We’ve been together a year but there have been some situations that caused some trust issues for me. Particularly a situation where he described a female friend from his previous town as just a friend, who he thought I’d like and who he intended to continue being friends with, and then he admitted they almost had sex once when they were drunk and he claims he is embarrassed about the situation. This was before we met, when he lived in a different town where he still has friends. He cut contact with that person now but it left a bitter taste for me and it’s been a process to regain trust. He also was kinda friends with a girl he dated and her new boyfriend and said they’re super cool people and I told him I was not comfortable with him remaining friends or even acquaintance with people you’ve been in bed with, and he eventually understood and respected that and also cut contact with them.
