i think jealousy is ruining my relationship...Help?

It really bugs me that my boyfriend wants to be friends with a girl who he told me was the hotest girl and had dreams about cheating on me with her. i dont know if im being unreasonable or if he just doesnt care for my feelings and wants it his way.

You aren't being unreasonable. Him telling you that he not only finds another woman hot but dreams about cheating on you with her shows a total lack of respect for you or your feelings on his part. That is the behavior of a jerk. Why would you want to be with someone who has no consideration for your feelings or respect for you as a woman?

I do not think that is unreasonable on your part. It sounds like he is trying to manipulate you and make you feel jealous. It would be unreasonable if you didn't want him being friends with any women. But he has told you he thinks she's hot and he dreams about having sex with her. Those are huge warning signs.

But honestly, while he may think she is hot, why is he telling you these things? It sounds like he is trying to get you worked up and jealous? Why is he manipulating you like that and how long are you going to put up with it?
