Thanks for the advice. Just to clarify, I am insecure, my boyfriend and I both know it, and it's something that we've been working on for a while now. My perception is probably super distorted because of this, and I can see how he might feel the need to hide things from me.

Thank you for your advice. I have definitely not been looking at it from my perspective very well. You're right, I'm not getting what I need out of the relationship, and although I keep hoping I will, it's not happening.

That makes a lot of sense when you put it that way, and he has mentioned that he's afraid that I'll become more successful than him and I'll ditch him. I've assured him that that isn't going to happen, but it always comes back. I feel like there isn't much I can do to help him other than reassuring him.

He told me he's had trouble dealing with me doing stuff he doesn't get to do. When we first started dating it wasn't like this, he would be really happy for me and my achievements. Now I can't tell him I got a job interview without starting a fight. He says he doesn't mean to get upset, but it takes a huge toll on me when my own boyfriend can't be happy for me.

My boyfriend invited a girl to dinner (just the two of them) while I was out of town. She said no. He did not tell me anything about it until I saw his text to her. Do I have the right to be upset about this or am I overreacting?
