You sound insecure and he sounds immature. If you stay mad at him it shouldnt be bc he danced with a couple of girls at a party, it should be bc he was a jerk on your anniversary. Being a jealous person shouldnt be a personality characteristic that you should just shrug off and expect people to accept- its something you should work on. That being said, a good boyfriend wouldnt intentionally do things that will make you jealous, angry and insecure.

When I met one of my husbands friends (back when we first started dating) over the course of the night the friend was talking to my bf about coming out to AZ to visit him and possibly driving to Vegas. He then shot a look at me and added very quickly, "If thats ok with you of course"- I just laughed and told the friend that I didnt have a problem with bf going to Vegas, I wasnt worried. I knew him and I knew I could trust him. The friend turned back to my bf and said, "MARRY THAT GIRL"
Now I have never been much of a jealous person, but I WAS a suspicious person, mostly bc of the quality of the guys I dated, they just werent terribly trustworthy. Then I started dating my husband and he was completely different- he had nothing to hide, and he would never intentionally do something that would hurt or bother me. Nice guys DO exist, why dont you go find one?

You're being unreasonable. He did nothing wrong. There's NOTHING attractive about jealousy and insecurity, and saying "he knows I get that way" is no excuse.

Apologize to him for overreacting.

Well, you can't control a guy's action when he's out with his friends. I understand 'jealousy,' it's natural to feel jealous from time to time (not in an excessive and controlling way) but you CAN control your jealousy because there's nothing 'attractive' about jealousy (since most of the time it stems from insecurity).
And just because your bf knows you get jealous, it doesn't mean that he has to 'restrict' himself, well, you're not the boss of him. It's not excuse to control someone's action just because he knows you're the jealous type. And dancing can be fun and platonic as well (well depends on the participants) and if that's how he wants to have fun, why can't he do so? You guys have been together for awhile, surely, this is NOT a new thing for you.

What I'd suggest is that you either try to work on your jealousy issue and stay/move on/forgive OR you work on your jealousy issue and break up with your bf. It sounds to me that he still wants to have 'fun' without the gf right now, maybe he's not too keen on commitment.
Or you may want to date a different type of men too, I mean, I must be coming from an old world or something, but majority of men I dated (jackarses or not) were not the 'dance all night/drink until morning' type of guys. They're pretty old-fashioned, in fact. So I never really get jealous/insecure about them hitting the bars/dance clubs or whatever. My hub do go out to drink at sports bars from time to time with his buddies and/or bros and it's fine with me when they do.

Is this jealousy/insecurity from this current relationship? Or has it been a pattern with you? If the latter, you may want to learn more, research and possibly find a professional/counselor and work on your issue. Good luck.

I think you are 12. That is what I think.

Thats a tough one but I think all of them are right... ditch him. You are just afraid that he might cheat or other things. It is not a good way to live. totally unhealthy. Plus anniversary think was horrible. You said you forgave him and that you love because you worried to lose because you love him! BUt does he really love you? Does he? Think about his actions and the way he talks to you. Is that how you talk to him? Ditch him.

Why should he be apologizing? I don't know how old you are but if you are adults and you have trust dancing shoudln't be a big deal. I have been in a happy, healthy, fighting-free relationship for 2 years and if either of us go out and dance with someone of the opposite sex it is a non issue. We have a lot of love and trust and that's what counts. You sound immature and like you are lacking some trust in your relationship. You should evaulate what is making you react like that.

Neither..... Unless he cheated on you there's no reason to be pissed off in the first place.

However I do think you have some growing up and some apologizing to do.

I don't think dancing with a few girls is a big deal. I would not be happy if my man did it, but I don't think its a deal breaker. But if there are other instances and he does not say I love you back I'd be concerned.

Agree with july77. Well the dancing part is sort of something you'll have to let go. It's of course OK for him, but God forbid he catches you someday. You'll see if you two stick it out together. Also the anniversary part seems very sad to me. He should be acknowledged what you siad, but I think you two were having a fight at the time about the dancing? Hopefully this will all blow over, but I would have felt pretty hurt by his cold behavior. He should have given you a smile and a gift. A hug or something.

what i dont understand is why he is all of a sudden angry with you. yes maybe you did over react but thats what most girls do especially when you werent there and you probably have some horrible image in your head. the question is would he react the same way if it was the other way around??? give him some space if thats what he wants. he is the one over reacting
