Should i have to delete a friend from facebook because my girlfriend asks me to?

I love my girlfriend dearly but she is so jealous. Recently she deleted this dude from Facebook and I think she did it just to expect me to delete a particular girl. The dude she deleted used to flirt with her constantly but I never cared because he is from another country but she has known him since before we were together and has talked on the phone with him and such. She is so jealous of this one girl. I've been Facebook friends with her for like four years and we have never been anything more than that. She has never tried to hit on me even when I was single and has never made any inappropriate comments to me. She often comments on my statues and pictures but mostly the pics of my daughter and how cute she is but never anything flirtatious to me. I've never called her or asked for her number or vice versa. But my girlfriend just can't stand the fact that she comments and "likes" things I post. She has gotten to the point of asking me to delete her and I don't feel like I should have to tell a good friend of mine that my gf is jealous of her and I have to delete her. I would feel stupid and immature asking that. My gf is convinced that this girl is in love with me but I know full well she is not. I don't want my gf to think I am putting another girl over her but I feel she is being ridiculous about this. Should I have to delete her or am I in the right to say I feel I shouldn't have to? It is taking the fun out of Facebook and I'm almost to the point that I feel like just deleting my account.

No you should not delete her at all! She has some insecurity issues that she needs to work out!! If she is threatened by a girl that you have known for years...that is her problem. Normally, I would say, take your girlfriends advice, but in this case, it is different. She is being a little over the top...if you give in to this demand, then she is going to continue giving demands....really a slippery slope you are dealing with. You seem like a nice guy and by asking this question...it is obvious that you care for her. Tell her that she needs to delete all of her guy friends off of her facebook and she is never ever allowed to talk to another male or be friends with another male in her life! See how she responds to that!

Alright listen you don't need to do ANYTHING for her just because she doesn't like someone... So what some competition big whoop. Who cares she needs to dig a ditch cry me (well you) a river build a bridge and get over. She needs to put herself in that other girl's shoes. What if that other girl was dating you? What if your girlfriend now "liked" something on your wall and that other girl you may have been dating got jealous? Wouldn't your may have been girlfriend be pissed and make you delete your girlfriend now? How would she feel? Doesn't your girlfriend realize she's being over protective? I'm sorry honey but you need to tell her to back off. That you are a man and she shouldn't tell you who you can be friends with on facebook. She isn't your mother is she? I didn't think so. So my advice is to lay of or you guys are through until she gets the picture. You can be friends with whom ever you want and she can't change that. And whether she realizes it or not she won't be able to change you.

I feel the same way about some of the girls on my boyfriends facebook, but reading it like this I feel stupid. She should just trust you and know you're not going to do anything. You said you love her so that should be enough for her and if she wants you to delete this one girl then she doesn't trust you. And you can't have a relationship without trust. Don't delete your friend. She's your friend, nothing more.

Hmmm.... Gee I wonder? It may have to do with the fact that you and every other guy under 30 in the U.S. is a dumbass! I mean seriously! it's been less than a month and you're already out serching for a girl?! You dated for 2 1/2 years so you must wait 1 1/4 years until you can date again. p.s.: you're an asshole

No. There's no reason to be. Deleting ur friend bec of ur gfs insecurities & demand isn't a good sign for a successful relationship. Good relationship based on trust & understanding. If she can't do that. Don't trust u enough & very malicious . Sooner or later ur relationship will come to an end. It will kill the love the trust & hope of successful healthy, happy relationship.
