My bf has a serious jealousy problem....?
My bf of a year and a half is a very jealous person. He is over protective with me, its okay to a certain extent. If it's hot out, I'll wear a tank top and some shorts and he will tell me I look like a hoochie. If there's guys at his families house or anything, he will tell me don't talk to them. I can't have guy friends, I can't talk to guys period. If I get on xbox live, he gets upset if I'm playing with guys! If I call a celebrity cute, he will be like "wow"
I love him so much. We have a child together, but the jealousy is getting out of hand. When I try to tell him, he flips the script and try's to make it about him and get mad at me. He is eight years older then me, and his views on things are a little different then mine, he's a little old school I guess. I don't mind him having casual girlfriends but he sees something wrong with that.
I'm stuck. I love him, but the jealousy is tearing me apart.
How do I fix this

A good way to start is by confronting him. He is obviously protective for a reason, it could be because he is afraid of losing you to someone else or because he doesn't want other people thinking badly of you. Whatever the reason, you must figure it out. After that is accomplished, you can proceed and and explain to him why he should not be afraid, that his view is different than others' and that you love him and that you know how to look out for yourself.
jealousy can be dangerous.. you need to sit down with him, tell him your being serious and that the jealousy needs to stop. let him know you love him and only him and no guy can change that but let him know the jealousy is tearing you guys apart
the basic of every good relation is the trust of each one... so maximum try to understand each one and go with a better unity...
