having mental issues (boyfriend with his ex)

Hey I am new to this but need some serious advice on what to
do.  I
was in a relationship for 13 years and he was pretty
controlling.  Now
I have found the guy of my dreams although I am not sure
anymore.  See
this guy was my grade 1 and two best friend and first crush.
 I have
loved him all these years and for 23 years we didn't know
where each
other were.  I am happy we are together however he has lots
of "girl"
friends that call and that's cool because he does talk about
me and
it's not like they are trying to get with him.  However he
does have
this one ex that has his child with him. They talk all the
time and
seem to be quite good friends but for some reason every time
I hear
them talking I get really super upset.  I pretty much shut
down and
just become really passive aggressive.  I am trying not to
but this
lady really upsets me alot.  I am really jealous of her and
I don't
know why.  I want my boyfriend to have a relationship with
his son and
it's great that he cares so much about him however when
those two talk
it's not about his son at all it's about her and her life
and what
she's doing and then he tells her how he's doing and seems
pretty
wierd to me.  I don't know what to think anymore.  Ihave
tried to talk
to him about it and tell him how I feel but he just shrugs
it off to
me being insecure and that he loves me and wants to be with
only me.
But if I become passive aggressive he gets even more mad and
we
fight.  I don't honestly know what to do or say anymore.  I
want to be
with this guy and I am for the most part really happy with
him but for
some reason I really really scared that he is going to leave
me.  I
have never been this way before and it's really overwhelming
to me.  I
am so in love with him that I guess I am afraid that
something better
will come along and becasue him and his ex share a child
together...there must have been a connection there at one
time and to
hear them talk just seems like they are still dating.  Am I
going nuts
or is there somethign that I can do about this.  I have
tried reading
books and tried to build my self esteem but I just get so
upset when
he talks to her.

Hi, Im sorry you are feeling so over whelmed at this time,
you sound
as though you are confused about your feelings with your
partner, I
was wondering if you had anyone close to you who you may be
able to
talk with. I am not trying to tell you what to do, you
mentioned you
were in a previous relationship before which seemed to be
controlling,
I was also wondering if you had considered talking to a
counsellor who
specialize in these areas, hope this helps,
All the best xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
