Chapter 1: Can trust be rebuilt after it has been broken?
What's happened in the relationship?
He's friends with one of his dad's friend's daughters, and they were messaging each other. There was no flirting, but it still rubs me the wrong way. I can't trust him or it. I don't want to seem controlling. How do I talk to him about how uncomfortable it makes me? Ideal outcome, for my boyfriend to understand my feelings and why I feel this way.
There's a borderline of insecurity versus reality. And we can't sit here and say which one's insecurity and which one's reality. But what I would probably do, if you don't have anything that really would suggest that there really is anything going on, I want you to say, why can't we all be friends?
Because typically when you're a friend with her and you find out what's going on in her life, you really do realize that she will respect you, hopefully, and make sure that a boundary isn't crossed or make you feel comfortable. There's not a boundary being crossed.
Definitely.
And when people, you know, go to that extra effort, look, I have ex-girlfriends in my life. I have women that are friends in my life. I have people that I do work with that are women in my life as well as men.
And the one thing that I've certainly have done is always made sure that the person that I am with knows these people, feels comfortable with them, and that they all know each other and there's respect. And that no one has any doubt that there's nothing going on. And nothing has been going on. I mean, I've been in a few relationships and they've all been monogamous.
I've never derailed the relationship. If I felt the relationship was not going to be my permanent relationship, I walked the other way.
Yeah. And I mean, clearly, based on the writing here, there's been some background, you know, info that's happened in the past.

Chapter 2: What are the signs of a healthy vs. unhealthy relationship?
He kept it up for quite some time and then even got with technology. Wow.
He did until the day he died, which was two days ago. It was an amazing guy. You can certainly look up his funeral, Alvin Sugarman from a synagogue in Atlanta, Georgia. Amazing, amazing funeral. Something that was inspirational about love and about communicating with people. And it made a difference for me.
Yeah.
Anyways, we now can move on.
To number three.
