Before I started dating my boyfriend we were friends so I know exactly what type of girls his type is. It makes me feel really insecure because I don't fit into that type whatsoever. How do I get over this insecurity and also the jealousy I get every time I see his past hardcore crushes?

He’s with YOU because he likes YOU. End of story.

Having a “type” isn’t a hard limit; it’s more of a general guideline. And it’s common to become attracted to people who are outside of that type, unless you’re completely shallow and only look at appearances when choosing who to date.

If you need affirmation from your boyfriend, tell him that. Ask him for the attention and validation you need.
