Hi again Madlyinlove.
Not acting on this has got significant implications for your mental health as well as your relationship. You may need to replace the word love with 'obsessed'.
I stand by my previous comments. This issue is bigger than you think and to date you've been unable to resolve it on your own - you need professional assistance so I urge you to find a way to get counselling. You can call the Gay & Lesbian Helpline on (021) 4 222 500 any day between 1 pm and 9 pm to discuss this with a counsellor.
