If You are uncomfortable, then you are uncomfortable. It's ok. You have rights to tell her what you feel. Then it's on both of you how does it go.

But I can't ignore her hypocrisy. You have already started compromising. And i can't ignore the reverse age gap. You are barely 18 and she 21. I honestly see lots of challenges ahead.

Shoot. I messed up the ages. I'm actually 21. Sorry about that. We are actually both seniors in college so we are on the same point in our lives.

I often consult my parents for advice and my mother recommend for me to hide my jealousy and learn to cope with it. To teach myself to dispel it because it ultimately makes my gf happy. My father told me to confront my partner and tell her it makes me uncomfortable but not to forbid her from going. I'm not sure which approach is better.

As for the hypocrisy, I don't think I compromised too much. All I did is just start keeping other girls at a distance is all. I've always been a bit uneasy around girls anyways. So it's not a big deal for me. I don't think she even cares if I make friends with girls anymore. It's better I suppose but that apathy kind of makes me sad. Like we lost something... like I'm not as treasured as I once was.

Listen to what your father says.

One observation, man you are selling yourself so low. You are giving excuses for everything from your side. Any ways, good luck.
