I have been dating my girlfriend for 3 months now as we start our second year of college.  We started dating during a summer internship at our school.  There we could spend a lot of quality time together and I really loved that...

But now we have moved into seperate dorms only a few blocks away and the rest of the student body is coming back from summer break.  This is where I have some worries.

Her 'best friend' is a [20M] moving into the same dorm that she is giving them more time to hang out while I have to get signed into a building a few blocks away.  I am still trying to accept their relationship as nothing but plutonic, but it is difficult.  

They would sit close studying together, she would text him all the time, and he's even spent the night at her place.  I have already discussed my feelings with my girlfriend, and I have noticed that she has started to text him less in front of me, but still keeps contact almost every day.

I don't know if I'm just jealous, or insecure, or even right about these feelings, but I do know that I want these feelings to stop.

I also feel really bad about these feelings because apparently her guy friend has no other real friends.  I don't know if he's playing a sad sap card complaining how his life sucks or his life might actually be terrible!  And part of me feels sorry for him, but another part wants him to keep his distance.  I've only meet the guy a few times and he has already made me get bad thoughts of poeple who resemble him in any way, even just his name.

All I want to know if the best way for me to get rid of these feelings while keeping our relationship strong.  Thank you.

My girlfriend's best guy friend is her very best guy friend, and I'm jealous about it, but I don't know if I should be jealous.
