Dear Abby,

I have been dating my boyfriend now for almost 2 years and I believe he is the one! However, I found myself getting jealous the other night and I am disappointed in myself. I got jealous because while at his apartment, I was using his laptop to go on Facebook and he was still logged in, and I admit I was in the wrong, but I started to snoop.  Most of his friends on Facebook are women I don't know. I also went through his private messages and he has been writing to his previous ex. Nothing inappropriate or threatening, but why does he need to talk to her? Am I over-reacting?

Dear Jealous,

I can't point fingers because I too have gone into Facebook territory that isn't mine. It's hard to resist when he's still logged in! Here is the deal, the women that he has on Facebook, how do we know he even knows them? You know how irritating Facebook can be when you have 20 friend requests everytime you log in. He might not even know them! And the ex-girlfriend thing, here's the deal. If it were me, I would confront him about it. The messages might not have been threatening or inappropriate, but why is he talking to her? The ex is always threatening to the new girlfriend, and sometimes guys have a hard time realizing that. I don't think you have anything to worry about, but I would sit down and have a calm talk with him about it. Always talk to your significant other if something in your relationship feels uncomfortable! Don't be afraid! That's what they're there for!
