hey so I’ve been having issues and my head has been all over the place with this and I just don’t really feel comfortable with my boyfriend having a girl best friend even though it’s up too him really but I don’t really know what to do with myself , he blocked her before without me telling him to because he knew I was uncomfortable because she spoke about how heavy her boobs were etc and makes comments about her boobs before when I brought my daughter round to there house and she held my daughter until she stopped crying and said to me infringe of him you need boobs for this that’s why but then after he kept saying too me can I please unblock her because she is his best mates girlfriend too so I said go on then I didn’t tell you too block her so I found out they were texting each other recently but he deleted the messages which made me feel crap but he said he done that because he knew I would moan because he’s hid them before and I said don’t hide them it’s weird and even though there’s nothing like that on the messages I don’t like it when he hides them so he said okay he wouldn’t do that and wouldn’t send kisses too if it makes me uncomfortable so I said okay thanks I don’t mind messages being up there but just don’t do them things and he’s done it again but now I’m being made too be friends with her and get along with her etc .. I know he wants too stay being friends with her but I’m just so uncomfortable with them messaging each other and feel like I’m in the wrong all the time for this

hope this all makes sense

I think you're getting some stick here because the way you've phrased things makes you sound a little bit immature. He doesn't have a 'girl' best friend - he is close friends with a woman. I'm around the same age as you and all of this sounds playground even to me

Ultimately you cannot expect to control who your boyfriend is friends with. Doesn't matter if she's a bit of a cow. Doesn't matter whether you like her. As long as they're not crossing any sort of
romantic/sexual boundaries, you have not a leg to stand on telling him to stop contacting her. It stems from insecurity on your part & if you don't trust him the relationship is already doomed. If I were you id work on my own self esteem before trying to have a relationship
