A 22-year-old guy has been dating his girlfriend for a couple of months, and he’s already completely in love with her.

The biggest challenge in their relationship is that they live pretty far apart from one another, so they don’t get to spend a lot of time together, though they do talk every single day.

Now, prior to him meeting his girlfriend, he’s had a pretty terrible track record with his previous girlfriends.

They’ve all done some mean things to him that have left him feeling doubtful and insecure in new relationships, and that’s how he’s feeling with his current girlfriend.

Recently, he had a disagreement with his girlfriend about something she’s keeping from an ex, and that’s only making his feelings of insecurity even worse than they already are.

While on the phone with his girlfriend the other day, he ended up asking her if she still had any things that her ex had gotten for her.

At first, his girlfriend was quiet, but then she owned up to having a stuffed dog on her bed that her ex had gifted her.

If his girlfriend had kept jewelry or clothing from her ex, he wouldn’t have thought twice about it, but he considers a stuffed animal to be far more personal than those kinds of things.

“The only thing I could think about was that she was hugging and sleeping with something she had gotten from him,” he explained.

“I told her that I would like her to throw it away, and I even offered to buy her a new one. She then got really sad with me and said that it’s not like she thinks about him when hugging it, and that she only started to have it in her bed after they broke up.”

His girlfriend then tried to say that her keeping this stuffed animal would be the same as if his ex purchased a TV for him and he kept it.

He disagreed since you don’t hug a TV or keep it in your bed with you every night.

“We then argued about it for a while,” he said. “But I gave up, she wants to keep it. And I feel guilty about making it such a big…deal.”

“I know that some of my friends would also think it’s weird of any partner to keep a stuffed animal from an ex in their bed.”

He really doesn’t think he’s in the wrong for taking up an issue with his girlfriend’s stuffed animal. Do you?
