Thread: Boyfriend + Feeling Paranoid

Hi all,

I was really pleased with the help provided in this forum the last time I posted- so, lo and behold- I'm back again.

I feel stupid posting what I'm about to- I tend to worry about everything, and it infuriates me to my wit's end. I just need some opinions.

First of all, tonight I was browsing facebook when I noticed my boyfriend had posted a comment on a female friend's photo- his friend lives overseas and they talk every now and then. His friend was in fancy dress, in the style of Poison Ivy- the costume was brilliant- I'll admit, but it showed a hefty amount of cleavage and the dress part, was incredibly short- well above the knee.

This is what he posted:
very easily recognizable as poison ivy, id high five you for it but if i got that close id forget what i was doing

I don't know how to feel about his comment- is this something I just let slide, or is this a case where I should pull him up on his remark? I would never post anything like this on a male friend's photo- as it's something I'm not into doing and in fear of hurting my boyfriend's feelings.
Perhaps I'm being too sensitive- I mean, it wasn't overly suggestive- just a playful jest.
This is what I mean, I can't decide for myself.

Also, the other thing I need to ask others is- how do you cope with a boyfriend who is not verbally romantic? My boyfriend is great with gestures of affection- but I'd love nothing more than to hear something related to feelings come out of his mouth. I feel like I constantly have to probe him for his feelings about things, or about me- and this is only going damage the relationship.

I know I sound like some clingy girl out of a chick flick...but these are the things I worry about.

Anyway,

Thanks again,

Erin
