Dear Miss Emily:
My boyfriend and I
have been dating for a year. In his past he slept with a girl, and took
her virginity. That girl is now with his brother. My boyfriend moved in
with them 6 months ago. I do not like her for other reasons than this, as
well. She already cheated on my boyfriend's brother with her boss. Now she and my boyfriend's brother are engaged. It bothers me that he lives
in the same house as this girl. My boyfriend is 26, and I am 24. It
bothers me when she tries to cook dinner for my boyfriend and be the
"mother hen." It is causing problems between my boyfriend and me. I would
prefer if he didn't live there . Am I
wrong?
---------------------------Miss Emily's advice--------------------
This girl is no prize, and I feel for your boyfriend's
brother. But I think your boyfriend is there only because it's
convenient for him, and if she wants to cook to make herself feel
important, so be it. I'd take the meals too if someone wanted to knock
herself out cooking over a hot stove just to look like a domestic diva.
Don't show your jealousy, it will only serve to put you on a level that
is beneath you. Let her fill that roll. Hold your head high, and
continue to be the incredible girlfriend you are to this guy. If he were
the kind of person to be taken in by this loser, he's not worth your
time. But I'm going to think better of him, and feel sorry for his
brother who obviously has his head up his rear.
