Hey everyone,
So I just got a new girlfriend two months ago, and so far everything's great - but there's just one little thing that's kind of bugging me and I think maybe I'm just being paranoid, but I want to know what you guys think...
There's this necklace she wears that she never (and I literally mean NEVER) takes off. Every time I see her she's wearing it, she doesn't even take it off in the shower or swimming - we were having a day by the lake a little while ago and I sort of just casually said - oh hey, maybe you should take that off before you get in (it looks like silver), but she said she liked to keep it on. So then I asked her what was special about it - and she said "a good friend" gave it to her. So then I sort of jokingly asked, "Did this friend die or something?" and she said no and kind of got a bit angry at me - I suppose it would have been a bit insensitive if the friend actually had died.
Anyways, she didn't want to talk about it then, but the last time we had sex a few days ago (she never takes it off for that either) she got it caught in her hair so I suggested again she take it off, and she just insisted that she didn't want to - it was so weird, so I asked if it was an ex-BF who gave it to her. She insisted the friend wasn't an ex, but then she did admit that she had a "fling" with this guy earlier in the year before we got together. I then said that if it was just a "fling" why did he give her the necklace and why did she never take it off? She got close up again then and said she didn't want to talk about it and she swears there's nothing going on. I'm the kind of person who takes things at face value, but I'm not sure if she was telling me the truth... If she wasn't interested in this guy, why did they sleep together, and why this attachment to the necklace?? I don't even know this dude's name - and if he's such a good friend why haven't I met him? I want to ask her these things, but I'm afraid it'll just make her more upset...
What do you guys think? Do I have anything to worry about here or am I making mountains out of molehills?
