My boyfriend and I have been in a long distance relationship for almost ten months. He is very social and likes to hang out with his friends a lot. When he goes out with his friends or texts one of them a lot, I get jealous. I love his friends and have no problems with them, but I get jealous for some reason. I guess when he goes out or texts them a lot, I feel like he doesn't love me or doesn't miss me or is trying to avoid talking to me, when none of that is true. And I go out with my friends sometimes and text them, just not as often. I'm not as social as my boyfriend and I have a hard time accepting that sometimes. I feel like a loser because I don't go out as much or talk to people as much. Of course I want him to have a social life and to be happy and to have fun, I just can't help but get jealous. He used to not text me for hours when he was with his friends, but now he texts me every hour or so to make sure that I'm ok, which helps. It's not that I don't trust him, I do completely. I know he would never cheat on me. I don't know if it's because we're long distance and I wish I could see him every day and I get jealous that his friends get to see him a lot or what. I just need advice on getting over this jealously. It hasn't affected my relationship and he doesn't know about it, but I want to stop feeling this way. He has told me that he loves me and misses me and wants to talk to me, but for some reason I still overthink and get jealous.

You are not his world; you are just a part of it
And it’s ok to feel jealous don’t feel ashamed of your feelings but rather try minimizing it because to me it seems like you’re starting to overthink which could potentially effect you long term. You probably feel that way because he’s out with his friends face to face but you’re not and remember that it’s okay good things take time just trust him and trust yourself and the fact that time will pass and you guys are going to end up being together sooner than you expected. Try focusing more on yourself instead of keeping all of your focus on him. Do the things you love and the things that make you happy. Then at the end of the day FaceTime him and tell him how your day went and how it made you feel. Ask him about his day too. If that doesn’t help maybe start listing all your insecurities in a piece of paper and a possible solution? If that doesn’t work too just be honest about how you truly feel in a kind way. Remember to consider his feelings as hope. I really hope this helps!
Have a nice day
