I'm a 35 year old women dating a 44 year old man. Our relationship is great. He's kind, considerate, has never played games with me and loves me to bits. The problem is things I've seen him write online mainly before we got together. (Yes I googled him and I know I shouldn't have) He used to be a member of a lot of forums, all quite innocent. Talking about celebraties, news stories etc and I learnt he had crushes on 3 women off the tv. The problem is the first one was only 17 when he was 38, and the other 2 more recently in their late teens when he was over 40. He suffers from depression and hasn't had much luck with women in the past and he says that contributed a lot to the amount of time he would spend online as he felt it easier to communicate online, then in real life. he's shut his accounts down and no longer posts online as it caused so many rows between us. He was quite happy to stop as he said the forums were just a hobby and it wasn't worth losing me over. I guess I should be happy he has done this and as I said he is a amazing boyfriend. But it still freaks me out about the age of the celebrities he fancied (and also that he used to follow what they did online and looked up everything he could find about them) Even though he has now stopped, it all still freaks me out. Do you think I'm overreacting? Feedback from men would be particularly helpful Thanks
how does one explain the behaviur of a partner that rejects you in communication, when it comes to him contacting you, but he excepts u wth open arms when you call and sms?
i understand how you feel about his interest, but believe it or not, we sometimes do things on line that we wouldnt really try out in real live. if he stoped it for you, just appreciate that his thoughtfull and did not throw it in your face that its just internet. Stop with the insecurity it can be of great effect to you relationship.
