At the root of jealousy lies fear of loss. Like many jealous partners, Kevin feared loss of their relationship, loss of self-respect, even loss of 'face' fearing how his friends would see him if he were to be 'made a fool of'. Fear makes for feelings of insecurity. When fear lessens, so does jealousy. More than feelings of fear, jealousy also leads to a smorgasbord of other emotions such as anger, hate of love 'rivals', disgust (sometimes self-disgust), and hopelessness. So why might a person be jealous? Kevin's ex-wife had cheated on him and he felt he'd never got over this. 'Once bitten, twice shy', he was now creating imaginary threats. We're told it's great to have 'a good imagination', but he was using his to torment himself.

Being Jealous relates to comparing ourselves to others and feeling that in some way our life does not match up.So what is the best way to stop this, personally I think it is through realising we are all on very different paths and what is right for them or even might seem good might not be if it was added in our own lives.For me personally I think looking beyond the surface level and recognising that we cannot know everything about someone's past, present and future helps a lot eg.Right now they might have what seems like a ideal life but I well is it 'really' that way or does it just 'seem' so.Even if you conclude it really is that way I think feeling jealous can relate to not being content with your own life which could even be viewed as a catalyst for positive change so if someone had something that was a realistic desire of mine I might like to explore how they achieved it so I might too.

For me to stop being jealous you must also stop yourself from comparing to other people. Also Stop confusing make-believe with reality and use your imagination to make you feel better and not worse

Jealously is an internal factor which is very hard to control. People become jealous other things which are of value to them in their lives. Stopping jealously is very hard. It's important to step back and look at the bigger issue. Look at everything from a different point of view. If its something to do with a partner, ask others around you if they feel the same? Discuss with your partners your worries and see if you can compromise on the issue.

Feel good about yourself. You are who you are. I know insecurities are tough to handle. Can lead into depression too but try. If you succeed, it makes everything better.
