How can I stop being jealous?

Recently my best friend (let’s call him bob) moved to another state for college. I’ve liked him on and off for a little less than 2 yrs and I think bob has liked me for about a year and a half. The other day I told him that I like him and he replied that he likes me. However, I’m worried that the physical distance between us (I’m in CA and bob’s in the midwest) might create an emotional distance… also, he has met a girl in his college who has the same name as I do and I can see that they talk about getting lunch together & hanging out & stuff like that on his (this part may sound really lame/immature…) facebook. I’m just a naturally jealous person but I’d be so sad if bob started falling for the other girl. Bob’s trustworthy best friend had told me more than once during our senior yr in high school that bob liked me a lot and that bob doesn’t really talk to a lot of other girls except for me. (bob & i went to homecoming/prom) i miss bob like crazy. how can i stop feeling jealous?

  5. Dear, if you are that far apart, things are bound to happen that neither one of you may like…….If it was meant to be for the two of you, no matter who you date, you’ll end up together…….My suggestion is that you find a friend (not neccessarily a boyfriend) and get on with it………..

  7. get rid of the ugly green eyed monster, it will only cause heart ache, learn to trust him and enjoy the fact that he could have a female friend to chat with or would you prefer for him to only chat with boys

  9. First, realize how short life is
    and that you have got so much
    to do! Just put Bob on the back
    burner, cause whatever is going
    to happen is going to happen.

    Do not waste your precious time
    worrying over something you
    absolutely can NOT change one
    way or the other. Then go have
    a great life. Enjoy life!!! Have fun!!

    When Bob comes back you will
    be a fun loving open joyful person,
    not some old haggard thing saying,
    “Did you cheat on me? Are you sure?
    Tell me everything you did!”

    Once you find out you are a
    great and interesting person,
    you won’t worry what little
    old Bob is doing!

    Enjoy yourself, and have fun!!
    Don’t forget – BACK Burner Bob!!
