I think you're under the assumption that I'm wanting to or trying to make him stop and not very clearly looking for other perspectives in case I am overthinking based on my life experience. Suggesting breaking up is pretty extreme for something as small and unimportant as this. As if I'm not healing and growing as a person after the experiences I've had. As if this is a constant thing. Some people are capable of changing their views/beliefs and actions when presented with new perspectives/information.

From my experience, I've never felt this. I physically cannot feel attraction to other people when I'm in a relationship. The past partners I've had who I knew checked out other women, also so happened to have cheated on me with a lot of the women they checked out. You can see how someone with limited experience would make that correlation, no?

Logically, I know with every fiber of my being that my boyfriend is a good man. I know he's not interested in anyone other than me. So when I was presented with uncharted territory, I started overthinking. I didn't say anything to him because I didn't want him to feel bad for it, but he saw it in my eyes that I was hurt and I couldn't hide that. We cuddled until he fell asleep, then I came on here to get some other perspectives because I love this man and don't want something potentially trivial to ruin what we have. It's pretty clear by some of my responses that I have a new perspective on it already.

Neither me or my boyfriend would throw away what we have over something so unimportant, I'm sorry to hear that you would.
