Hi, i would love to say hello to all the wives and girlfriends on here! I'm brand new to this site and it's cool how you can see whats going on everywhere. But I am concerned about something. My boyfriend and I have been dating a year. We deff have been through some rough patches but we worked through them. He works 7 on and 7 off down in WV and every time he is coming home he starts convicting me of cheating on him and everything when he knows all i do is go to work and come home. I don't do anything and I tell him that all the time but he doesn't believe me. Is this normal rough neck attitude? Thank you for taking the time to read this. :)

Hello Stephanie, welcome to the site!!!  Sorry to hear that, but hang in there girl. It will get better.

 

No this isn't normal behavior for any man (or woman) no matter their choice of career. This is a self-confidence issue and still not normal. There are some things that you can try to do to help alleviate his tensions and fears, but it's up to him to accept the truth; that no matter what any other woman may have done in the past, you are not them and he has no reason to mistrust you. If you have iphones, use facetime calls instead of text or regular audio calls. If you have skype (and he has access) use it as well.  Part of the problem is that his job keeps him super busy, then in the down time he's thinking too much (fearing too much).  Seeing is believing, so try to incorporate video calls when and if you can.  They can't see what's going on at home, so they think about what's probably going on, then it's a short jump to what *could be going on and then a shorter jump *what if* (which is where the hell begins). Outside of that, *HE* has an issue that he needs to get some help sorting out.  Being overly jealous is a warning sign and without any provocation on your part then it's clearly a self-esteem issue - don't forget that or let it get lost in "love". Keep it real, and address this issue head on.

No dear, thats just your typical man. haha. I don't even listen to that crap anymore. It'll pass. Eventually.

I told myself a long time ago that I will not let this type of job strain our relationship. gotta make the most of the 7 days HOME!
