" i noticed that you said you are both in different cities. is this a long-distance relationship or is he just away visiting? i don't want to be discouraging but in my experience the long-distance thing doesn't work very well, especially with jealous partners. "

" Yes, long distance is NEVER easy! I know! You have to have majior trust to be in them. If he is borthering you about it all and you have talked to him and gave him out thoughts and laid it all out on the line. Then maybe reconsiderieng the relationship is what you need to do. You say a break up for the third time? So you have broken up with him over this stuff before it sounds like. YOu can only talk to your man so much. You can only warn him so much. YOu can only put yourself through the circus so many times and it's not fair. If he is really into you he should be able to trust you enough. If you aren't giving him any warning signs to be concerned about then he has no reason to be lashing out on you like he is. Maybe when he moves down to Austin and you two are living closer then maybe try again. But you got to think of yourself. It's not fair to you. Good luck! "

" i understand. it's hard to realize the little incompatibilities between you and your partner, believe me i notice it in my relationship with my husband all the time. since i am the jealous one, i always feel guilty that he has to put up with my craziness.
this doesn't mean that it can't work between you two it just sounds like it will take a lot of patience on both parts. i'm trying to learn this too! "
