Dear Queenie,
I talked to my girlfriend about sex and the things I like and don’t like. A few days later she told me she had asked a girl friend of hers about one of the things I like because she knew her friend had experience with it.
I know she wasn’t just gossiping but I wish she had kept a private conversation private.
Queenie, should I find another girlfriend or should I stop talking to her about private matters?—Offended boyfriend
Dear Boyfriend,
Because you talked apparently freely about this sexual preference, your girlfriend may not have realised that you did not want her to talk to anyone else about it. When you are talking to her about something you consider a private matter you should make it clear to her that this is something you want kept between just you and her.
If she respects your sense of privacy in the future, you have no problem – at least not in this respect. However, if she turns out to be a constant blabbermouth about private matters, you probably will be happier with some other girlfriend.
