How to handle jealousy?
I have been dating my BF for 6 months now. He has an ex that he was with for 3.5 years and she lived with him. They did together everything I have ever dreamed of doing with the love of my life from living together, adopting a dog to traveling the world and living in Costa Rica. I hate to be so small, but the jealousy of their experiences together keeps me from wanting to do those things with him too since he has already had these experiences with someone else. I sometimes wonder how I could possibly compare to the woman that he did everything wonderful with.
Any advice on how to get past the feelings of jealousy? I know he is with me now, but the logic behind thinking that doesnt help much.

Then think emotionally. He's chosen to be with you to share his life. Nobody can erase their past. I would be more jealous if he didn't want to do those things with you.
Think of it down to a really base level. If he went to, let's say, Olive Garden with this ex, would you not want to go to Olive Garden?
Instead, think how lucky you are that you have each other and have the broad expanse of your lives to explore new fun things.
Good luck!
