My friend thinks that because I dated her boyfriend a year ago, that I am going to steal him from her. I try to convince her that I'm not going to, but she won't believe me. I don't know how to make her believe that I won't. And just because her friends see me talking to him, they tell her and then she loses more trust in me. I don't even like him! Is this normal?
sounds like a crappy friend if she really doesnt believe you and very insecure too
just tell her WHY the relationship ended between you guys and even get mad a little, like tell her that she cant go on always thinking that youre going to steal him, you all have to see eachother often and live together as a society...so somethings going to have to change.
and tell her that you are a good friend and that if she thinks the same shes just going to have to trust you
You may be surprised about how much the level of insecurity can sometimes lead to blindness in the face of friendship.
Just saying you know.

I've heard of stuff like this before, being a guy no I can't really say I can imagine feeling that unless I had some form of evidence or logical reasoning to back up this possibility.
If this is completely foundationless then... its not so normal. In the event of high insecurity then yes... otherwise no.
Simple who's more important? Cut the other person out it's normal for her she is insecure so let her feel that way if you don't like him why is it such a problem?
