Step 1
You can and should fight with jealousy. At least for your peace of mind, so as not to poison your life, neither yourself, nor those around you. And in order to understand how to survive jealousy, you need to find out its causes.
Step 2
For example, jealousy is common for people who own property. And not only in love relationships. Often, jealousy is woven into companionship. In most such cases, jealousy has no basis at all, and the reason for the scandal is literally sucked out of the thumb. How exhausting and annoying it is, only those who have managed to experience the power of such "love" know. Moreover, a jealous person often suffers from this. It's good if the feeling is not too obvious. But it happens that jealousy literally obscures the eyes, and in such a state a person can do a lot of things. Unfortunately, not entirely good. Such jealousy is called pathological and, often, you cannot cope with it yourself. Here, the help of a specialist is desirable, who will help to find out the reasons for jealousy, and also teach you how to cope with it.
Step 3
When jealousy becomes a consequence of something, you can suppress it yourself. This happens when a third appears in a relationship. Often this happens after adultery, when one of the spouses, having learned about this for sure, continues to suspect the other half. Resentment, pain, and a desire to prove something speaks here. There is a feeling of comparing oneself with others, at the same time the search for potential lovers of a wife or husband begins.
Step 4
This morbid jealousy is just a veiled sense of one's own inferiority. Having learned about the betrayal, you involuntarily begin to think that you are worse. Such thoughts appear involuntarily and cause a lot of suffering. To survive such jealousy requires work on yourself.
Step 5
First you need to increase your self-esteem in every conceivable and inconceivable way. Self-confidence, as if by magic, removes all the annoying arguments from the head. A new image, an interesting activity, and personal care work wonders. With each new compliment, jealousy will weaken, and self-esteem will rise.
Step 6
For your own peace of mind, you need to learn to block negative thoughts. You cannot play in the subconscious a situation where there is jealousy and resentment. Avoiding such thoughts is the best way to suppress destructive feelings.
Step 7
Even if an interested look of a loved one in the wrong direction was noticed, one should not make hasty conclusions. In the end, a person is constantly looking at someone, but that means absolutely nothing. At such a moment it is useful to remember yourself. Everyone will surely have a person of the opposite sex who arouses sympathy, but nothing more.
Step 8
More often than not, you need to remind yourself that jealousy is meaningless. Jealousy will not only not keep a person close to you, but you will also push him away. You need to control your thoughts, learn to be distracted from them.
Step 9
Jealousy is good in small doses as a booster. Sometimes she is able to maintain a relationship, often - to revive love. But if jealousy interferes with life, then it must be eradicated. The consequences can be irreversible.
