His Girlfriend Constantly Talks About How Guys Are So Attracted To Her And He Thinks She Sounds Full Of Herself
A guy is in a relationship with his 28-year-old girlfriend named Val, and they have been dating for a year and a half. He does enjoy being with Val, and they have a lot of shared interests.
Around one year ago, they decided to be exclusive. Back when he first did meet Val, she had pretty much no confidence in herself, so he’s done his best to make her feel great about who she is.
“…I would compliment her a lot and try to build her up,” he explained. “Now I think that was a mistake.”
“Everything was smooth sailing, but for the last few months, she’s been telling me about different guys that have told her they’re interested in her and would ask her out if she was single or have checked her out.”
His initial reaction was one of indifference since he wasn’t exactly sure how he should reply to what Val was telling him.
But then Val got to a point where she was constantly talking about all these guys that found her attractive.
She would talk about her male coworkers who liked her, or strangers in the stores that she encountered who were so into her.
Several weeks ago, he mentioned a girl that’s dating one of his friends, and Val went so far as to insist that this girl had checked her out, to which he simply rolled his eyes.
Right after Val brought that up, they decided to go swimming together. As they made their way past a few guys who were near them, Val said they were all checking her out.

He turned to look, and all he saw was a bunch of dudes that happened to be looking their way, but the guys were not looking at Val specifically.
Then one weekend, he and Val dropped by one of his friend’s houses to celebrate a birthday together.
His friend Will was also at the party, and Will is an all-around great guy who enjoys talking to people and has a knack for making anyone that he meets “feel welcome.”
Val ended up talking to Will for quite some time at the party, and after the party was done, she mentioned to him that Will was crushing on her.
He told Val that he definitely wasn’t interested, which she fought with him on before he pointed out to her that Will was only interested in men.
Val didn’t take that answer well, and she scoffed that he had to also like girls because she knew that Will was interested in her too.
Well, he couldn’t take it anymore. He let Val know that she has to cut it out with thinking that every single guy is into her.
Val quickly accused him of being jealous of the attention she gets, to which he replied, “I’m not jealous, but this is beyond annoying. You sound conceited, it’s a major turnoff.”
Val was supposed to sleep over that night, but he sent her home. In the days after, he didn’t quite speak to Val at all.
Val then texted him insisting that he say sorry to her for his jealousy, but he doesn’t see why he needs to apologize to her.
“I don’t think I should apologize, but maybe I was being jealous and this is something I should just deal with,” he concluded.
Do you think he owes Val an apology, and do you think he sounds jealous?
