I'm really quite jealous.

If I have some drinks, I might be quite relaxed about things that might make me jealous when I'm sober. My girlfriend has a Jack Sparrow towel and poster, is renowned with her mates for liking Johnny Depp, squeezes my hand in the cinema if he comes on screen, has a Westlife and Kanye West calendar, seems to go on about Michael Buble etc. I told her that she's like a 12 year old because of it. She's 20 in June. I can honestly say I've never shown any affection to other women with her as no one else appeals to me. I realise that I'm being blunt and getting in a huff about it in an attempt to rid it from her. It's quite silly as she'll never meet them but I don't like the thought of her meeting someone that's even like them. The strange thing is, I 100% trust her and know she'd never go behind my back but don't like the thought of her having eyes for anyone else (celebrity or otherwise). I don't stop her going to parties by herself or read all her texts or anything mad like that.

How can I stop being so jealous?

I'm sorry, but that just made me laugh my fucking head off.

Erm, hope it all works out.
PepperPlunge
I can't imagine you're without fault.

And to be fair, I know people a lot worse. I know people who've stared at me from afar the whole time I'm having a conversation with their girlfriend and then might come over and usher them off. I wouldn't do anything like that.
SpursRiot2012
The only thing can really do is recognise thats its your problem and do your best to get over it.
Trevor
That really is a bit weird, if you don't mind me saying. My girlfriend, Shanice, fancies the usuals (Pitt, Clooney) but I don't go into a fit of jealous rage. Be grateful for what you have, Pepper and stop acting like a maniac.
PepperPlunge
A friend came over to mine and I showed him some wrestling videos. I have my PC set up to a HDTV. I'm far from rich though. After a few minutes, I sensed he was being a bit off. We went to Sainsbury's to get drink and he admitted he'd been off because he wanted a HDTV and wanted a PC linked to it. I know I'm not the only jealous person, and I only seem to get jealous about that kind of thing. Even John Lennon was a jealous guy, Frank.

In honesty, it depends on my mood whether I get jealois like that. I read too far into things. She has a mug saying 'Jess (heart) Kanye' on. That's a tad excessive, right? It was from a mate for her birthday but it's like a big feature that she likes him. My mate knows her quite loosely and brings her up if Kanye West is on the radio as he links the two. She says just for the music. I hate his arrogance and there are other people likee that she seems to like. Or other people my age might simply put 'Drake <3' (or more sexually explicit than that) as a status. I'm clearly very paranoid but it's hard to shake when you feel you have valid points. Girls seem to becoming filthier these days and more celebrity obsessed. I tend to feel Rihanna is so popular because she has slutty lyrics.

Anyway, off on a tangent there. I'll try become less jealous.
Mr. Seven
This is amazing. Please tell us more.
PepperPlunge
For the year and a half we've been together, we've never had a big argument by the way. Disagreements, but not fallings out or arguments. Not even raised voices.
Gladstone Small
Good job she doesn't like Dolph Ziggler or you'd have stabbed her by now.
Mr. Seven
Gladders I hope your wife hasn't made the mistake of having celebrity crushes. If so, I can only presume you've sorted her out by now.
NEWM
You know when you're off to bed and that silly bit in your head says: "Why not have a quick look on the UKFF, just in case...", and then you score something like this as a result of your curiosity. Ace.

But back on topic, have you considered what would happen if you took her to see Kanye West or Westlife live? Possibly even trying to get some backstage passes? Maybe that would help her get it out of her system.

Good shout. At least he can't get jealous about other men when his other half is in prison for lady-rape.
PepperPlunge
I'm not as bothered by say Johnny Depp as I am by Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Drake etc. as they all seem to have big egos and aren't classy. I respect Johnny Depp and he's a good actor. I'm not bothered about Brad Pitt or George Clooney as they're good actors. She made a comment about The Rock having a nice bum during Survivor Series and I didn't mind that, I just said the ref had a nicer one. My problem I guess is more with the arrogant ones with the obnoxious lyrics who get the attention they crave.

If she liked Ziggler, I'd post in a Raw thread saying he's improved as he got heel heat from me. Nah, I wouldn't be bothered by that. I think my problem is also that I don't have any celebrity crushes and feel it's wrong to have eyes for anyone else and having celebrity crushes is what high school girls do.
Trevor
This gets better and better. Celebrity crushes are EXCLUSIVELY for teenagers, you know those special calendars with Kelly Brook and Cliff Richard? Bought only by teenagers.

Fucking awesome.

So hypothetically, if let's say you met Johnny Depp at an autograph signing with your missus, and she was weak at the knees, and he said "Hello mate, mind if I give her a kiss on the cheek please?" you'd be okay with that? He does say please, I can't stress that enough there. BUT, if you're in the queue and spot him being obnoxious to others before you, would you probably want both of you to get out of there less you do something you regret? Where's the line with your acceptance of such scenarios?

What if she fancied Dr Truman from Eastenders? He was respectable. I bet his cock is twice the size of yours though. You wouldn't touch the sides afterwards!

Cuckoldry is the obvious answer to this. Jump in at the deep end.

Big Trouble in Little China is supplemented nicely by developments in this thread.
Mr. Seven
I concur with TripleA. The only way you'll get though this is by seeing some huge black guy rail your girlfriend in front of you. Don't fight it. Embrace it.
Trevor
Maybe you're suffering from some sort of subconcious racial issue? It's a bit of a coincidence that you didn't mind her sleeping with all the white, talented gentlemen, but wasn't so keen on the obnoxious, black guys, is it not?
PepperPlunge
Same applies for anyone who's white who sings/raps about licking somewhere or getting his dick out or anything else that explicit. I imagine people thought The Beatles had gone too far for singing 'Why don't we do it in the road?' Now look what you have. And the girls lap it up. Then a lot of them round this area go out with an arrogant prick as he's like what's 'cool'. Then she cries about her relationship, sleeps with someone else, gets beaten etc.

I'm remind myself of R-Truth. LIL JIMMY!

Good point about the calendars. I'm glad I'm getting ridiculed as it's what I need - someone to tell me how pathetic I'm being.

Yeah, if he was saying 'corr, you've got a wonderful rack' or things along those lines, I wouldn't happy. That's natural. Her perception of Drake changed when someone posted 'I want the Drizzy Three Stroke <3' with a video of him explaining what he'd do to a woman in bed explicitally during a gig. I reiterated my point about him being a cunt, she agreed from the video.
Rule One
PP: Look at it this way, she has her quirks and whether you like them or not, it's things like that what make relationships work. Plus she's got virtually no chance with those people so stop worrying over it and try and work it out by yourself. I'm sure there are some things she doesn't like about you but puts up with them because she loves/wants to be with you.

If it were regular everyday guys then obviously it would be a problem, to anyone else, this isn't a major deal and if you don't get over it sooner rather than later it will no doubt cause the demise of your relationship.

Summary: Stop being a twit.

Pepper,

Firstly i'll say you're correct about saying this 'should' only be for younger girls, (the level of obsession that is) but to be honest i would say every girl has this sort of thing about at least one person/program etc. As an example my other half loves the TV program "True Blood" as is about a inch away from selling her soul to get with some bloke from that. on top of that she is obsessed with Gerrad Butler (sp?). I on the other hand dont really fancy anybody to a level of obsession, like she does.

Regardless of peoples level of obsession, the main thing you are missing is "Trust". You mentioned you trust her 100%, although this would clearly show in being as jealous as you are about people she would most likely never get the chance to stand in there personal space, it shows you clearly do not trust her at all.

Bottom line would be a trust issue as a whole i think, if you trusted her this would just be a case of "You crazy girl haha" and it wouldnt be a problem. It is you who has an issue. Deal with it or break up with her. Not to be harsh, but if you cant let it go........you're going to be doing this for a long time, so you may as well try and find somebody who doesnt do this sort of thing, which again i would say most women do in some form.

Hope that helps in some way!

I really don't think it's a question of trust, it's just jealousy or ego, he trusts her not to fuck anyone else but it still annoys him that she fancies other people even though he know she won't/can't shag them.

To be fair if my girlfriend was obsessed with a celebrity I'd probably find it a bit tiresome, I think anyone would but there's no point acing like a jealous boyfriend because for her it's just a fantasy and there's not really much you can do about it, you can't tell her she's not allowed to want to fuck every famous black man, she can think what she wants even if you don't think it's appropriate. Maybe the two of you should talk it out, it won't change anything, she'll just stop telling you about it (if she cares about your feelings) or she'll ignore you and carry on as before.

Maybe you could black your face up and put on some Kanye sunglasses to renew her interest in you, it might also help if you act "not classy" and "arrogant" as she's obviously into that.

Maybe you should play her at her own game, buy some hip hop magazines and let her catch you wanking a few times looking at pictures of Kanye, L'il it al, I'm sure she'll see the error of her ways then, maybe fantasising about black men could even be something you do together, as a couple, it might bring you together.

Hope that helps.


Bowyo T
Yeah, that above is about right, for the most part i've always found if somebody is jealous / having a hard time because they fancy somebody, it does come down to trust because said person would think, "If they fancy 'Generic black superstar rapper' that means she could have feeling for other people in general, thus they will cheat on me". Its something that does need to be talked about if it really is just a case of: "please just shut up about 'Black rap superstar/famous actor/amazing TV show' its fuckin annoying."

But if it really does "Bother you" it may be worth having a word with yourself. You'll also probably find it translates to those types of people you see out in clubs, the loud/cocky/flirtatious (sp?) types which again if you really trusted you partner it wouldnt be a problem.

Either way have a word, and see if things get better.
Romford N Reem Express
I seem to be having the reverse problem to most men.

Most of the lad's round my way (and in life to be honest) my age (23) are all about getting laid with no strings attached. The problem is, I've not been in a proper Normal relationship for about 2 years or so, and i'm at the stage now where iv'e pretty much had my wild child days, been there, done that etc etc, and wouldn't mind having a girlfriend to not so much settle down with, but to calm me down a bit.

I used to be a right terror with going out all weekend getting plastered/doing drugs and essentially spending a fortune in money. I feel like I should be growing up and not doing these things, staying in a bit more and saving some money, cuddling up to a missus with a takeaway at the weekends.

Recently whilst on a night out with the lads, 2 of the lads girlfriends and their mates came to join us where we were. Now one of the mates is a girl called Abi who i actually met through another mater as they both work together and we'd been on a date before but nothing ever came of it (more to it than that but it would take too long to explain). Despite this, it was still obvious we both had chemistry with each other whenever we were together, and finally this night the alcohol pushed us both in the right direction. I ended up back at hers, we proceed to do whatever it is us kids do and then started engaging in drunk pillow talk. I knew she had come out of a stressful relationship a few months ago and she pretty much said that for now she was interested in any of that lark. Fine with me as I didnt actually ask her otherwise, but just seemed weird as we'd been chasing after each other for months and this seemed like a bit of an anti climax..

Anyhoo, i've spoken to her since and made sure we were both cool and that it wasn't awkward as she's good mates with my best mate Tom who works with her so i'd probably be seeing her about. We still always get on really well when we talk and have a giggle, and last time I spoke to her rather than saying she wasnt up for a relationship she was now saying "give it a few more weeks of being single". For the record im not pushing her for a relationship and i've played it Samuel L Jackson levels of cool with her, this is all stuff she says without any prompting.

I'll keep you updated folks!

If she can't accept the workrate of late 80's NWA then perhaps you need to move it on to early Nitro era WCW. You are clearly out of practice; you'll never get the girl with the wrong tapes

I gave it Davey Richards style workrate in the sack but that's about as far as it went.

Countless near finishes, went on too long etc etc.......

Just want to quickly jump to the defence of PepperPlunge.

Now if it's just a little silly celeb crush then yeah ignore it and move on. However if they are full on obsessions then it's not very nice to hear her lusting over another man, famous or not. She sounds quite young in herself and there is a chance she may even do it to wind you up a bit which just seems pointless to me. What i'm trying to say is just because the object of her desires are famous, she is still blatantly and obviously lusting over another man/men in front of you.

I wonder how she would feel if the next time she harps on about it you said 'Yeah, it's funny you should say that, I've been having similar thoughts and fantasies about your best mate. I mean she's your best mate so it could never happen but jeeeeeeeeez I'd give her both inches if it was possible no doubt about that.'

I think it must be something that crops up all of the time otherwise it wouldn't bother you as much so I can see how it would make you feel inadequate. It is all down to our own jealousies and insecurities but for her to act so over the top about it must make you feel a bit shitty.

In conclusion, cheat on her.

Screw that, I'm a 33 year old woman and last year I spent £50 on a Take That ticket, have their mug and keyring and for some reason ended up getting two of their calendars and Christmas presents this year. Doesn't mean that I'm going to run off with them.

My mother (60 years old) has also repeatedly told my father that if Bruce Springsteen, HBK or Nash even looked her way then he'd be gone. I think the specific phrase she said to me was 'I wouldn't climb over them to get to your dad'.

It's not racist though, is it? If Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt were banging on about how a bitch should suck his dick, they're going to eat a bitch out etc. then I'd have a problem there. That one's not my problem; it's theirs.

Sounds like a good girl there mate!

I was also in the same boat as you, (getting all the wild stuff out when i was 18-19) so by 21-22 i was tired of that sort of life and wanted to just take it easy.

If you've mentioned shes just come out of a stressfull relationship, giving her a few weeks to generally cool off is always good. At a base, at least you guys can talk openly, and thats before you're even going out which is always a plus!

Take is easy dude!
