My girlfriend and I have been together for almost 3 months now. She is almost 25 and I'm 22.
She's got a 3 year old daughter. She's been very nice with me, but I
feel a little insecure for the following reasons: she makes more money
than I do, her ex-boyfriend and her work in the same company, and she
is getting breast implants this weekend (she is very pretty already and
the implants she is going to get will lead to even more masculine
attention.) I'm afraid to lose her due to any of the last reasons. What
should I do? Any advice will be appreciated.
So you’ve got reasons to feel insecure, granted. But you also have reasons for feelings secure, no? You call her your girlfriend, so I’m assuming that she isn’t dating anyone else. Yes her ex-boyfriend works in the same company, but after work, during her free time, she’s with you, not with him. She’s already very pretty and guys are already paying attention, but she’s by your side.
So you see, the problem is one of appearances. You’re saying the glass is half empty when you should be saying it’s half full. Actually, it appears to me to be almost completely full. If she was only interested in money, she wouldn’t be going out with you at all, so yes she makes more than you, but it doesn’t seem to matter to her. You offer her something else. And the fact that she’s getting breast implants tells me that she’s insecure about her looks, otherwise she wouldn’t be getting them. So again, that seems to be in your favor because her insecurities are not going to disappear because she has new breasts. What will probably happen is that her insecurities will change focus, so she’ll be insecure about some other part of her body.
So my advice to you is to stop being so insecure yourself. There are no guarantees that you’re going to remain together, but I’ll tell you this much, the more insecure you act, the more likely it is that she will leave you. So push those thoughts aside, become as close and intimate with her as you can, and see what happens.
