Jealousy?

0

So I’ve been in a relationship with an amazing guy for 3 months now. The only problem in our relationship at the moment is that I’m painfully jealous at times.
Most of my jealousy is rooted to my low self esteem and the fact that I’m constantly comparing myself to other women. This is causing a huge strain on our relationship;I’m scared that if I don’t fix it soon, he’ll for sure leave me. But it’s just something I can’t help….
Advice?

Ok first off i would like to say Im sorry it took 2 days for someone to reply to your question and secondly it is always hard dealing with jealousy. It is an ugly feeling when you have it i know this, ive gone through it as well. There has always been those thoughts of why and i dont understand but then there always seems to be that quiet unheard voice. "They chose you over everyone else to date. They chose you." Self esteem is very important needless to say and have a low self esteem is troublesome but always think to yourself that you are amazing in their eyes, you are beautiful in their eyes, you are funny in their eyes. From past relationships i can honestly tell you this, they were ruined because of jealousy which led to issues about the relationship to follow. This person chose to be with you for a reason and its because they see that you are special. I know it is difficult to see the positive side of this but once you do it will be a lot easier i guarantee it.

First I think you need to keep telling yourself that your boyfriend loves you for your and only you. And that the reason he chose you was because you mean alot to him and that you're very special to him. Try reminding yourself daily and think more positive thoughts to boost yourself everyday.Okay, once that's done. When you feel yourself getting the feeling of being jealous, take deep breaths in and out. Try calming your senses when you feel jealous, it might turn out its fine. Being calm keeps you from doing silly things that jealousy might provoke you to do. Sit out and think it through. Is there really a problem?, does your boyfriend seem to be letting of the wrong impression?. Once you have thought it through and you still think it might be a potential "threat" or you just can't deal with it. Try gently reminding them that he is your boyfriend or walk out for a breather.I think the key to jealousy is trust, try and remind yourself of it too. Maybe even try talking it out with your boyfriend, you can solve it together.
