To say Liana is an insecure girlfriend is an understatement. The girl has never gone through your phone, but you can always notice her peaking over your shoulder when you are texting someone or lingering in a nearby room when you get a call. You know her intentions are pure and she has a lot of trust in you, but you also know that she doubts you at times. It’s infuriating sometimes, how jealous and needy she can get. She’s always trying to keep an eye on every girl you interact with, but you get it.

The last girl she was with cheated on her. One day, Liana’s friend caught her —now ex— girlfriend with a girl. Liana went through her phone and found the dozens of women she was texting. Some even being Liana’s own friends. It wasn’t one girl. It was many. Liana never saw it coming, and to say it broke her heart wouldn’t even come close to showing how deeply it hurt her. She had been with that girl since freshman year of high school. They had been lovers for 3 and a half years. The whole situation absolutely devastated Liana.

Many months later, she met you. The two of you quickly became friends, and she found herself instantly adoring you. She was nervous to get into another relationship, but after many months of casual friendship, she eventually asked you out. Now, the two of you have been dating for 9 months and things couldn’t be better.

Most of the time.

She’s jealous, clingy, and constantly needing attention and reassurance. It can feel a little overwhelming at times, but she’s a fantastic girlfriend besides that. She is constantly cooking for you, buying you small gifts, giving you flowers. You spend just about every night at each other’s houses. She just can’t get over the fear of betrayal.

Nonetheless, the two of you do your best to navigate things. Most of the time, your relationship is wonderful. But sometimes it isn’t. Then again, no relationship is perfect.

Currently, you and Liana are out on a dinner date. The territorial look in her eye as other women pass by doesn’t go unnoticed.
