Am I just being dumb?

I'm a very emotional guy, not flowery and stuff like that, but I guess i'm just more in touch with them than most people. I have a girlfriend, and we've been dating for a year and a month now. But before I begin I think I should say that I can be very jealos, only over my girlfriend really but I still can be, I'll admit it. The other day we went to see a movie for her birthday, and it was a chick flick really, but I don't think it should matter what kind of movie it is as long as were together having a good time. But the day after she asked me if I liked it or not, and I was honest with her and told her "its not a movie I would really want to see twice." I also gave her the same reason above about being togther. But then she asked me for specifics, and she already knows I can be very jealos, and I said that "It was a movie that the girls go to see to watch the "hot" guy." and she said "so?". Thats when I asked her if she thought he was attractive to which she replied yes. At that point I felt like someone took a sword and jabbed me in the stomach. I do get physically sick when it comes to stuff like this and I DID get sick. But to cut a long story short, in my mind I feel like I have been cheated, even though it is sort of childish, I know I can't control my girlfriend and I never want to, but I'm still hurt, and I want to know what to do, because depression has been the bi-product of these situations before, and I'm too young to waste another 2 years with it. So if there are any helpful people out there, who droned through this entire thing, that could leave something, I would be greatly appreciative.

A little bit of jealousy is always a good thing. It means you care about the other person. But when it starts causing problems, it's the worst emotion out there for a relationship.

All my ex girlfriends were attractive. Guys always looked at them, hit on them, etc. But I've never been the jealous type. The way I see it, who is she with? You, not other guys. Who does she always come back to? You, not the other guys. As long as she's with you, forget about what she thinks of others. It'll just drive you crazy.

your just being dumb.

you both cant help but find people attractive, your human. If she admitted to being attracted to the guy it just means shes honest with you, which is healthy isn't it? be scared when she starts hiding who she finds attractive so you don't get upset...

That helps a lot, both of those replies, I thank you both.
