So I've been dating a girl for the last three months. Guess we both "fell in love". First time I had that happen in a long time. I have been looking to settle down with someone lately, so against my better judgement and gut feeling I agreed to involve myself in an exclusive relationship with this girl just after the first week we were together (she stayed at my place for 2 weeks straight after our first date).
Anyway. A lot of things happened during this time where she would accuse me of entertaining and chatting with other women (which was true, I was constantly getting messages on Whatsapp, Instagram etc) and while I did give out my number to quite a few, I never met up with any of them.
Either way, I am not the type of guy that looks through someone else's phone. To me that's private property. And I don't care if they went through mine first. Principles are principles.
But yesterday we had a raid in my apartment by the local version of DEA. Have had a fight with my landlord and her way of messing with me was telling the Police I kept drugs in my apartment. They went through the whole place and my girlfriend was scared as I did have some weed in the closet.
Anyway, she says she's not my boyfriend, that we are only fuck buddies, that she's only here like once a month...and on top of it, it looked like she was flirting with one of the cops. After it was all done, she even went with him outside and exchanged numbers. I'm thinking cause shit seemed to be happening and all of a sudden I wasn't the most "alpha" in the room, she mentally just left me there for a couple of hours.
The next day I hacked her Tinder account (which we had agreed to delete). While I constantly were re-installing and deleting my Tinder account whenever she would come visit, she said she never did. But anyway, found that not to be true and that she had also been "entertaining" guys the whole time.
So, I broke up with her. This is the 5th time I am breaking up with her during these three months. The other 4 times was because of similar things. She seemed to hide or lie about things. Her stories didn't add up.
In one way I know logically that a relationship with such amount of turmoil, where I have broken up with the girl 5 times in 3 months is never going to work out long term. But I am also wondering whether it was my own insecurities and jealousy (because of my strong emotions for her) that caused me to overreact and become suspicious when there might not even have been a reason to.
She says the reason she was entertaining other guys was because she felt insecure in the relationship (after all my break ups with her), along with her seeing my messages and flirting with other girls. According to her she is just "mirroring my behavior".
Anyway, I do feel bad and I still love her. I don't feel like dating any other girl right now, no matter how hot she is. Any advice for how to move forward emotionally and get back into the game? Should I play things differently next time around?
