How much of your GFs "business" do you know?

[The_Reaper]

What I mean is, how much information from her private life do you know - or think that you should know? Do you ever ask her who she was on the phone to, what she was texting/emailing, where she's going, et cetera?

Personally I do not like the idea of a domineering guy keeping a tight leash on his girlfriend, but I'd like to know what you guys think.

Right now I act like I don't care about those things. Why? Because I honestly don't. And it feels great not be jealous and I hope to keep it this way.

I think it's an attractive attitude to have because it subtly suggests confidence and perhaps the fact that you have other options. Just make sure that you don't reveal too much about your personal business either. Keep it balanced and it should be ok.

If she's on the phone with someone while I'm with her I'll ask who. If I suggest a date and she says she's busy I'll ask with what. But the tone I ask in is indifferent enough that it doesn't bother her. And if she says "I was talking to a friend" or "I'm hanging out with a friend" I won't quiz her on it. It's really tough to get me to show any jealousy (largely thanks to this website). If she wants to cheat on me, she will no matter how much I check up on her, so why waste the energy?

Exactly!
