My boyfriend became very jealous soon after we became intimate. He admits that I have given him no reason to mistrust me but he just can't let my past relationships go. I am starting to resent him and the idea of even seeing him is beginning to bother me. The trouble is he is perfect in every other way and I do love him. Should I let him go or try to work it out. Will he be able to let go of my past?

Jealousy in a partner, especially unfounded, may not be normal. I would seriously doubt he is "perfect". In fact, I might even insist on a mental health evaluation to rule out problems with paranoia or delusional thinking before we continued in a relationship. - Answer provided by Stephanie Buehler, PsyD, Psychologist and Certified Sex Therapist, drbuehler@cox.net, www.thebuehlerinstitute.com.
