Are you suspicious by nature...

[Lauri]

or do you find yourself more suspicious of people in general, given your line of work?

As I have posted, I occasionally date a detective. He has total access to my life. He can show up anytime day or night, has a key to my home, etc. I have absolutely nothing to hide. If he cannot come over or spend time with me due to work commitments or life commitments, that is okay, I have no problems being on my own and I do completely understand his job. But....I get grilled about my whereabouts, who I talked with, where I went, what I wore IF I did go somewhere, etc. And it is in the form of 20,000 questions, all worded very differently, but with the same basic question as the bottom line. I do not falter, because I do not lie. He is very good at his interrogation skills. I know it sounds more like a jealousy issue than anything else, but he just seems very suspicious of everything. We have talked extensively about this and he does apologize as he knows I am what I am and also who I am. I think he is suspicious more by nature.

Gets very tiring and very old. Anyone?

Anyone who questions their significant other like that has serious problems that have nothing to do with being a cop. He sounds like a control freak with a lot of insecurity and jealousy issues.

The fact that he wears a badge doesn't make him any different from other control freaks who think they can run every minute of their girlfriend's lives. He isn

Thanks to both of you, my thoughts exactly and the reason we date occasionally. He is divorced, as I am, but I could not nor will I tolerate this full time. I do not know, nor do I care what was the issues in their marriage, I knew both of them.....but....my concern is ME and nobody else at this point in time.

I was just trying to understand if this was something work related or by nature. I am not a stupid woman, but needed to ask.

Rule one here at O.com, you can't start a story like that, without telling us details.

Cat + broken vase = stitches! UGH
Not the most lovely feeling in the world right now. But...life does go on

Forgot to add that being accident prone does not add to the pretty (NOT) picture!

Gee thanks, and she is only about 1050#, she can't be a moose because I show her in quarter horse shows! She has to watch her willowy figure you know! She's a big goof, she should have been a huge lap dog. My animals are all so spoiled.
