dont disagree with your reply, but i think i should clear it up that its not that we dont trust each other in the sense where we’d think one of us would cheat. thats not the case. the problem we both have is jealousy. i struggle with the images of their past together and still maintaining a close friendship because i think what separates friends and lovers is that one of them should be who youve had sex with. not to say you cant ever sleep with your friend and dont judge whoever does but if it were me, i wouldnt stay close to them if my partner felt really uncomfortable with it. prior to knowing about them having sex, i had no issues with their friendship.

he knows i have no attraction to my best friend. but he finds himself comparing and getting insecure, he doesnt like that theres another male that is close in my life even if we have no history.
