I have, I use to be the worlds most jealous person, and there really is no way to prevent it... It hurts, and it sucks, but you just don't let whoever it is know that your jealous... keep it in, talk to other people about it, and make sure it doesn't get back, learn to trust the person more. Just cherish the friendship/relationship as it is, because if someone didn't want to be with you or be your friend, they wouldn't be, so you really have nothing to be jealous of. If you don't trust someone, that's a different story, but make sure your not trusting them for a real reason. Good luck, and if you ever need anyone to talk to, you can always email me at Dixiexccoach05@aol.com

You prevent it by stopping and thinking. Make reason be your course of action. Has the person you are jealous of ever given you a reason to be jealous? NO - then STOP and think! YES - then no one can blame you to a degree, but if you are still with them you either need to deal with it or understand that maybe we all make mistakes, even you, and that person has learned. This means you need to either trust them again or move on so you can both relax. Jealousy is just another way of saying to your loved one that you do not trust them! Another way of dealing with jealousy is age! LOL. The older you get the more you understand and relax. How do I know. I almost lost my bf over 4 years ago because I was SOOOOOOOOOOO jealous. I didn't trust him due to my last bf screwing me over. I learned and corrected it in time. We are on year #5 now and very happy. And OLDER.

It happens quite alot. The only way to prevent it is to stop worrying about what someone MAY do. You need to realize that no matter what you do, be it spy or go through someones wallet or check thier emails, etc., if they are gonna cheat, they are gonna cheat. Nothing you will do can prevent it. Now, if that kind of jealousy continues and you always accuse or constantly want affirmation of thier love for you, you can actually PUSH the one you love into someone elses arms. You can create your own pain by letting this kind of behavior continue.

Only from the receiving end.
Ended up having a relationship with my (now) ex-gf and ex-bf end because my ex-bf was jealous. Unfortunately, my ex-gf felt she had to keep her "man", so she gave into his every whim.
His feelings were further complicated because he had "body issues", given he was in the middle of transitioning from a female to a male. I think he mistook not having a complete body with not being masculine. Masculine he was. Unfortunately, also insecure. Pity, I still love them both.
If you are trying to deal with your own jealousy issues, then look up polyamory. Some of the sites include articles on dealing with jealousy. Jealousy is a fact of life in some poly relationships.

First of all if somebody gives me a good reason to be jealous...i will be jealous and it's all downhill from there. The way to not let jealousy ruin a good thing is to not give somebody a reason to be jealous.

Best thing is to stop looking at things from an emotional stand point we have all done it. Stop thinking someones out to get you! Best of all...Keep your mouth shut ,jump to know conclusions! Sometimes you can speak things into existence...Stay cool
