I dont feel like I can go on anymore. I think about ending it every day. Im scared though. I need someone to talk to.

I (28 M) have been with my girlfriend (26 F) for a year and a half. I have always had lots of platonic female friends. My girlfriend has platonic male friends. I know lots of people have strong opinions on that but I genuinely think men and women can be friends.

I was very close friends with (29F) for years when we worked at the same place. We had a silly thing of calling each other "little boo". I don't even know how it started.

My gf and I also met at work. She has repeatedly expressed to me that she's OK with me having female friends but pet names are too far. I personally don't see the big deal if it's just something silly. 29 F is married with a kid. I never told her about the "little boo" thing but my gf noticed 29F posting it in a comment on my social media with emojis that included hearts.

I guess my gf for some reason went on an instagram deep dive because she's now sending me screenshots of times I commented "little boo" on 29fs instagram during our relationship. She's extremely hurt saying I disregarded a boundary she's expressed several times.

My thinking is 29f is not a single girl or someone I was ever involved with and I don't think my gf should police jokes and nicknames I have with my friends.

AITB?
