Jealously. . . it feeds on your insecurity, devours your self-confidence, and gobbles up the trust in your relationship.
Jealousy has been defined as an emotion experienced by one who perceives that another person is giving something that she or he wants (typically attention, love, or affection) to a third party.
Jealousy is an emotion resulting from the resentfully suspicious nature of man. It is a universal emotional trauma caused by things as well as people. Jealousy is a reaction to a perceived threat - real or imagined - to a valued relationship or to its quality. Jealousy has a mind of its own and it is strong enough to make us believe and see things that are not even there or that have not happened yet.
Jealousy is a "complex reaction" because it involves such a wide range of emotions, thoughts and behaviors. Believe it or not, like other difficult emotional experiences, jealousy can be a trigger for growth, increased self-awareness, and greater understanding of both your partner and your relationship.
While some couples seem to feed off of inciting a playful type of jealousy, many other relationships are laid to waste by uncontrollable and irrational fits of jealous rage.
In small, manageable doses, jealousy can be a positive force in a relationship. Jealousy heightens emotions, making love feel stronger and sex more passionate. But when jealousy is intense or irrational, the story is very different.
Jealousy is almost always a demonstration of our own insecurities and low self-esteem. Unless an unfaithful partner has broken trust, about 90% of jealousy comes from from personal insecurity. When you are feeling unloved, be careful not to focus on your partner when the feelings are really inside you. Jealousy provides an opportunity to come to a fundamental understanding of yourself. You may be being driven by your fears.
Insecurities bring forth jealousy, which, in effect, is a cry for more love. It is within our rights to ask for more affection when self-doubts surface, however, the indirect way that jealousy asks for it is counterproductive. Excessive possessiveness is inappropriate. Jealousy is the surest way to drive away the very person we may fear losing.

This guy im kinda going out with gave me his password for his email, but he told me not to go on unless he asked me to, and I was on there one day and I saw an email to a girl saying he thought she was hott and that he would try to call her later.. even though this email was sent before I even met him, like 5 days before.. Well I got jealous all of a sudden and sent him an email saying 'f you'.. well you have to understand that we met over the internet, and he told me that he never have called another girl.. anyways he told me later that it was just his friend or something which im not sure is true.. but it still made me feel embarassed.. because i totally overreacted. well anyways, i apologized and stuff and said i pretty much did the same thing before we met.. anyways he said that after i sent that he was about to delete be from all of his emails and im's and stuff and that he wasnt going to call me that night, i found that out when i called him.. am i so horrible? can this relationship keep going even though my jealousy got in the way? i hope we can act like it was no big deal.. well please give me a little advice on this, and if you people think he can forgive me. lindsey xx
