Jealousy is built up based on miss trust. Trust is really important in a relationship to experience growth. Try trusting your partner more that at the end he/she belongs to you.

Think about it this way, their past relationship ended for some reason. That person wants you now and nothing else. Even if they're still close friends, remember that they recognized it doesn't work, they're not in love, and they want you now. It'll all be okay, and it's a normal feeling to have.

Jealousy is hard...but it depends on where it's coming from. If you're jealous of your partner interacting with someone, that's a heart problem. It's not their fault. Unless you sense that there's something greater than a friendship. But if not, let them be! They are not your property! They do not belong to you! They are there to love you and only you, yes, but you cannot take control of everything they do. They are allowed to have friends too.

Having open and honest communication in a relationship helps alleviate jealousy as you are being honest and building trust. Not having any fear about having some conversations that could be uncomfortable is a good way to move forward. Opening up these channels will strengthen your relationship and encourage growth. It is important that we keep growing as a couple when in a relationship as we can become stagnant and start neglecting some of the other important aspects of the relationship. Open and honest communication is not always comfortable. It really does help a relationship to move forward though so it is important to nurture this aspect.

Hello! Jealousy is an feeling, like any other but it can be very dangerous towards relationships. Jealousy can leave you feeling unsafe, insecure and overprotective in relationships. I wouldn't suggest "getting over it" as much as I'd suggest finding the root. When do you feel jealousy in your relationship? Writing out when and specific examples can help. What is causing it? Maybe in your last relationship, you got cheated on so many times, that jealousy has become your protective blanket to fall under because the trust shattered your security, trust, and love and made you suspicious or feeling like green-eyed monster. Once you realize a cause, looking for other people's experience and advice would help. Feeling something is normal but acting on it is a different category. Once you've seen how other people dealt with it, you can try to implement this into something you should work on personally and it'll benefit the relationship.
