My boyfriend and I have been together for over a year. We have a great relationship, and I love him to pieces. The one problem is, money. He has everything he needs, and the fridge and cupboards at his house are always full of goodies, veg, fruit, etc. Sadly, my mother and I struggle to live on basics - bread, milk, potatoes, etc. I know it isn't anyones fault that his family does well, but I get really jealous of him. Sometimes, it even makes me made at him, when he flaunts what he gets. I wish I wasn't this way, and I really worry that it could get between us. I have tried to ask him for advice before, and his (lovely) response is always, "If you ever need anything you know I'll get it for you." Cute right? But another problem of mine, is asking/accepting things of other people. I always worry that people might think I'm only interested in him because he has money, but that isn't the case at all. Letting people buy me thing also makes me feel as if I owe them something in return, which I obviously can't do with little money. Don't get me wrong, I know people have it worse than I do, but I just wondered if anyone could give me some useful advice on how to control my jealousy. Thank you so much for reading, and any advice x
