25-year-old boyfriend's close relationship with a coworker makes woman uncomfortable, breaks up with him because of it: 'I didn’t want to be with someone who made me feel that way'

There are going to be moments in your relationship where your commitment is tested. Maybe you suddenly have to go long-distance. Maybe you learn something about your partner that would typically be a deal breaker. If your love is strong enough, these obstacles are simply obstacles, and you and your partner can move around them.

One of the trickiest situations to encounter in a relationship is the person in your partner's life that "you don't have to worry about." Maybe it's your partner's best friend, an ex, or a coworker. If you're a jealous person, these people can really test your patience. And if your partner is a flirtatious person, it's hard to ignore when someone else is blessed with the light of their affection that you assumed would only be for you. When you get to that point, you have to figure out if your jealousy is getting the best of you or if there truly is an issue and you want to be treated differently. One girl faced that issue when her boyfriend started getting really close with a coworker, so she broke up with him because he didn't make her feel assured. So when he starts telling people their break-up was mutual, is she right to correct him?
