    why you dont think it has to do with love?
    i see it as faith in your partner, trust in them, jealosy and selffish/selflessness
    so those factor heavily in love no?

    i cant stop her from meeting other girls.. thatll be way too selfishh. I mean, she can have friends.. that are guys..
    i dont think i can actually stop her from meeting guys LOL :p its like impossible. Especially for adults. You do whatever you want, work, social events.. bound to meet someone of the opposite sex. Even job projects.. probably half of the other sex will be with you etc etc.. so yeah.. unless i lock her up or something, i dont see how i can stop her from meeting guys :p

    I do not encourage it but neither restrict it. However, my bf doesn't seem to have this necessity -lol
