Reply to comment by sliverofoptimism in My [19M] girlfriend [19F] slept with another guy whilst things were complicated between us. Really need advice. by ThrowRAspaghetti666

It’s like an earworm, I just can’t get the thought of her with this other guy out of my head. Then I start getting annoyed with myself for letting it happen in the first place. Whenever I’m doing nothing it’s the first things that pops into my head and I don’t know how to stop it.

I can’t control it. Will it just stop with time? It’s always worse when I’m not with her.

Thank you for your response though. It’s kind of what I need to be hear

Sounds like intrusive thoughts, do those happen with other things or just jealousy?

I’ve not really had them with jealousy before, I guess I’ve had them in terms of worrying about other stuff like health.
