Jealousy: friend or foe of relationships?
id: 10048409

🤔 Why are we jealous?
Jealousy is the fear of losing something valuable. Often, it hides self-doubt or lack of trust in a relationship.

"What if I'm not good enough?"
"What if he/she finds someone better?"
"Why did he/she look at that girl for so long?"
These thoughts can destroy even the strongest feelings if you don't learn to control them.

💡 When is jealousy a friend?
Sometimes mild jealousy adds passion to a relationship. You understand how dear a person is to you and want to protect your feelings. For example:

When you notice someone looking at your girlfriend/boyfriend and you feel a desire to be closer awakening inside.
When a small prick of jealousy reminds you of how much you love.
But it is important to remember that everything is good in moderation.

⚠️ When does jealousy become an enemy?

Constant suspicions. If you see betrayal where there is none, it destroys trust.
Control. Reading correspondence, asking "where have you been?", prohibitions - all this can stifle freedom.
Your own fears. Sometimes jealousy is a reflection of internal complexes that need to be resolved not in a couple, but with yourself.
🌟 How to deal with jealousy?

Conversations. Honestly share your feelings with your partner. For example: "I don't like it when you spend a lot of time with her. Can you explain why this is important?"
Work on yourself. Figure out what exactly causes jealousy. Is this your insecurity or a real problem in the relationship?
Trust. Try to believe in the sincerity of your partner. After all, without trust, love does not last long.
💞 Summary
Jealousy is normal as long as it remains a light spark and does not become a flame that burns everything around. It is important not to let it destroy what you are building together.
