I took an on line course on the subject which hit on a few keys points.
1. Jealousy is, plane and simply, fear. F-alse E-vidence A-ppearing R-eal
2. It is easy to prove someone is unfaithful by simply catching them. It is impossible for you to prove your fidelity. There is always a brief unaccounted for moment when, who knows?
3. 95% of being cured of jealousy is making the decision to get over it. No amount of convincing will work. It's like quiting smoking. All of your senses are telling you to smoke, only your brain can bring about a positive conclusion.
4. I read many years ago, Skakespear. "The thing I fear the most has come upon me" We as humans have an uncanny ability to bring down our worse nightmares upon ourselves. Jealousy is one of the primary ones. I told my jealous girlfriend after years of abuse... "If I'm going to do the time, I'm going to do the crime, from this day forward, be careful what you accuse me of"
5. The opposite of Jealousy, fear, is faith. The jealous party must make a concerted effort to instill faith in their partner, after all, people have a tendency to live up to our expectations. Don't set them too low.
6. The jealous party suffers from security issues and sees them self as competing against everyone else for your time and attention. You should try a communication session to reasure the person that we as humans have the ability, and need, to create various types of relationships that a well adjusted person should not feel threatened by unless certain boundries are being ignored. Many times a person will say, "I don't have friends that I put above our time together" Sure, because no one wants to be your friend.

Absolutely not. Sometimes, when someone doesn't trust you, they will appear jealous - but the two emotions do not have to accompany each other. A lot of times, jealousy has nothing to do with anything or anyone except for the person who is jealous. It can stem from self-doubt and insecurities, and it's very hard to fix. The best way to deal with a jealous person is to constantly remind them of your love, until the symptoms that come off as jealousy begin to decrease.

do you guys communicate well with eachother?? if not that is the first thing to try and work on. if you cant do that then ..... other than that, there are about three top reasons i have discovered from my experiences with guys... obsessed, in which case, GET THE HELL OUT OF THERE WHILE YOU STILL CAN. he has a guilty conscience, which would mean hes the one you need to be jealous of or concerned with! and then there is , hes just simply insecure, and that, WITH communication,reasurance, love and PATIENTS! can be taken care of with time! ya know sometimes we women can be this way to, think of all the different reasons you would feel tht way,think hard about it, and then you might be able to narrow down some reasons for yourself that might be even more helpful!

Good question...
The problem is, I'm the one who's always jealous. I'm not sure whether my boyfriend is doubting my trust for him but I just can't control it..
Sometimes, I keep quiet when I'm jealous and sometimes, it really shows..
Following are some of the reasons I got jealous:-
1. He'll drive 15 kms to pick up his colleague to work (his colleague is a man) but he never offer to send me to work, which is just 10 kms away from our place (we stay on the same street but different blocks)
2. My roommate (a female) joined us for dinner. She doesn't like meat. She gave all the meat to my boyfriend and my boyfriend, in return gave her all his vegetables and tofu..
3. He addressed the VCD sales girl "pretty girl"
I think when someone is jealous, it doesn't mean that he/she is lack of trust. It's just part and parcel of life!

Not necessarily...they might not trust the people you're with! My fiance has admitted to being jealous sometimes. He says he doesn't mean it, he just can't help it. He trusts me and knows I won't do anything with anyone else, but I think he gets worried about guys ever trying to do something with me.
it's ok to be a little jealous I think...it's human nature! :)

It seems like it. If the person is jealous because another guy/girl looked at you, then it's probably love. But if you want to be with friends, the person is jealous you will have too much fun without him/her.

jealous have very little to do with trust. Sometimes someone might love you so much, that it will truly hurt that person to share you with someone hence resulting in jealous. To some extend thou, it can occur.

Yes. , most likely. You might had done something to lose there trust, you have to regain it. Yet some others are jeasous and they are the one that is doing the cheating. Just try and do things together if it makes you r b/f , g/f mad don;t do it. Include them. Good luck Pem
