My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and a couple months. When we started dating, I was not jealous of anything. As our relationship has become more serious, I have become more jealous. He has never given me a reason to be jealous, he is very good to me. The things I get jealous over don’t even mean anything. My jealously is starting to cause problems with us. I don’t know why I became so jealous, or what i can do to overcome it?
First, accept who you are. Acknowledge the fact that your feelings are a bit over the top and unhealthy. The fact that you wrote this letter indicates you’ve done this. Next, tell him how you feel and explain that you know your reactions are too extreme. If he understands how you feel and your jealousy gets out in the open it will hopefully lose some of its strength and hold on you. Jealousy is sign of lack of confidence in yourself, insecurity and fear. Start believing in yourself focusing on your growth as a person. The stronger and more confident you become the less room there will be for jealousy. Good luck.
