Your gf was evidently never taught about the birds and the bees, but rather, was told to beware of men, as that they only wanted one thing…. sex.
Your best strategy would to schedule an appointment with a female therapist that can begin to explain more fully why men look at her, as well as other women, especially if she is highly attractive. If she learns to consider such attention as nonverbal compliments, I think that her anxiety will subside.
At some point both you and your boyfriend should accept she won't accept him. You can't make her do so, but you slso do not really need her acknowledgement. The sooner you give up on bothering to care about her not caring the easier it will be.
Well they, you know, died. Both of them in his depression year. I know he has a older sister but that aside from like a grandma of his is the only family he has left. I feel for him.. I will talk to the friends soon and see if that will help.
One of the pieces of advice I would give from the things I've learned is that you should always observe someone's actions. Because actions prove more than words.
And if their actions don't align with what they're saying… trust your intuition. Don't ignore it.
In whatever way he claims to “love” you, it is not the kind of love you're looking for.

I wish her well.
