Realized I have major jealousy issues and don't know what to do about ex

[Jonnie5]

My girlfriend of 1.5 years broke up with me about 2 months ago. During this time I have done a lot of soul searching and I have come to the conclusion that I have a huge jealousy issue and I am very insecure. I was always jealous if she looked at a guy or talked to a guy that she knew. It made me question her and i would get very angry. I was also very jealous of her past. I have decided to seek counseling about my jealousy issues because I keep repeating the same relationship patterns.

 

I think that by behaving this way and always questioning her this caused me to not trust her and bring up many doubts. I think she just got fed up with me and couldn't take it anymore. Should I tell her that I have realized this about myself and I am trying to fix it or should I not mention it to her? We have recently started talking on the phone as friends. Do you think saying something would help or would I come off as needy and desperate and push her farther away from me? thanks for your help

It depends on what you want from her. Are you trying to get her back? Do you normally discuss personal things?

If you are trying to get her back, then yes, maybe you should talk to her about it...You found out what you think was the problem with you and her, and you are working on the problem, which should say something...Talk to her about it and see how she feels...

Good Luck
