How do you get over being naturally jealous?

5 comments

1. You just tell yourself that you don’t care over and over and over again, and eventually you don’t!

2. Find out why, deep inside, you believe your partner is going to leave you for someone else. Jealousy is the fear that you are not good enough, a sign of bad self esteem. It is possible to work on that. To become a man who believes he’s okay.

3. Being rational. It really just comes down to taking a beat to understand where the jealousy is coming from and out thinking it.

4. Build confidence in the relationship. Just because they want her doesn’t mean she wants them. She chose you, she chooses you, and if she’s worth your trust she’ll always choose you.

5. Jealousy is an external manifestation of an internal insecurity. Figure out that insecurity and heal it. There are jealousy workbooks for this. Look up books in polyamory especially, even if you are monogamous. The best advice is there.
