Question
Situation: Your professional photographer boyfriend wants to hire some beautiful swimsuit models for postcard pictures. Before you and he started dating he sometimes took photos of swimsuit and occasionally topless models. Although your boyfriend has dated many, many, women before he met you, he has never dated any of his models and claims he has always been completely professional when photographing. Your boyfriend usually does not like anyone to accompany him when he shoots models and sometimes these shoots take place in remote, scenic locations that require he and the model travel alone in a car together to the photo shoot. You believe your boyfriend to be honest.
Question: What do you do?
This is the situation I find myself in. H says he would never cheat on me but it makes me very uncomfortable to think about him giving attention to other women. I have a healthy self-image, but I know I am no model, and it makes me feel so I-Don't-Know-What when I think about H gazing at another woman's beautiful body. If you want a faithful relationship, why expose yourself to temptation? I have nothing to gain and everything to lose in this situation. H says that he would rather I work on my insecurities than change his behavior. H says that his other photographer friends shoot models and their wives have no problem with it - but I am not those women. Is it me?
