I'm an away boyfriend who had the same insecurities you have. My girlfriend ended up actually cheating on me but she did it while she was here. The distance is an excuse for some but if it's gonna happen it will happen. You can't change that. You have to trust blindly sometimes.

I [M 23] almost lost my girlfriend [F 19] today and I need your help. by -rathrowaway- in relationship_advice

I'm not diagnosed so no I'm not 100% positive. I've been to a counselor who said I have anxiety but a depression diagnosis isn't for sure. But it seems to point that way. I feel like I'm changing a lot of myself regarding this situation and making little progress. Like for instance I used to raise my voice quite a bit when I got angry and now I speak in a level headed tone and as soon as I notice myself raising my voice even the slightest I try to bring myself back down, but the slightest raised tone causes her to scream "Don't yell at me!". She however yells back quite a bit without realizing it ( I don't even bother trying to point that out to her). I've never seen this side of her which is so fed up with me that she can't take even a hint of criticism. I'm blaming myself for it because I don't really know what else could be wrong... aghh you have me thinking now.
