would you mind if???

yeah, so i have a reason for asking this question that i'm going to ask. you see, a couple of months ago this girl at my school, angela, went to great lengths to break up my girlfriend and i. anyways, she didn't succeed but when it all came to a head after angela did some nasty things to joanne (my gf), such as spreading rumours about her being a whore and slut and stuff, it was revealed that she likes me and wanted jo and i broken up.

anyways, yesterday my science teacher has paired angela and me up to do a major assessment task. there is quite a bit of work involved and it will mean that we will have to work on it outside of school. so jo isn't too happy about it because she doesn't rust angela with me because she thinks that she will make a move on me. but joanne also said that she trusts me, and so she should. i love jo way too much to allow anything to happen that will put our relationship into jepardy. so anyways, on sunday afternoon angela is coming to my place to work on the assessment. jo is reluctantly ok with it, but she still isn't happy about it, but i have promised her that i won't allow anything to happen.

so after all that jibbering, here is the question. would you let/trust your gf/bf/partner work on an assessment or equiverllent knowing that the person they are working with likes your gf/bf/partner and might try and make a move?

It depends on a few things:
1. trust
2. Something else, but Im not sure.

Of course I would trust my boyfriend in that situation. I know that he loves me and only has eyes for me so I would know that he wouldn't allow anything to happen. That wouldn't stop me questioning whether she would make a move though.

Would I trust my g/f in that situation? Yes, of course I would. Afterall, it was Angela that was the scoundrel, she's the untrustworthy one.


Would I like it, no way.

The issue for me, though, wouldn't be interpersonal, it would be academic. I'd frankly be much more concerned about Angela sabatoging the assignment resulting in a bad grade. Afterall, not only does she have a lot of very personal feelings here, she also doesn't handle them very well, she does things that are frankly very hurtful and mean spriited, much more than mere jealousy. So, her intentionally bombing here for spite (or black mail) isn't a totally unreasonable concern.

So, in this situation, I'd probably ask the teacher for a reassignment of partners.

i would as long as i trusted her and believe that she wasn't trying to decieve me. but of course i wouldnt like it.

[Nihilus]

It depends but yes I would. After I would talk to her though.
