This is a quote that I found online today, and it simply summed up how I've been feeling lately, and after some time I realized that I had no reason for jealousy. By chance i found my boyfriend, but jealousy will not keep us together, trust will. I have to trust in him to make the right decisions. If I can't do that then there is no point in the relationship that we have. There is no point in the love that we share. Trust is what will keep you together, remember that. Jealousy is a sickness and it can go away, you just have to believe in yourself and be confident.... Just trust.
"Jealousy is simply and clearly the fear that you do not have value.
Jealousy scans for evidence to prove the point
- that others will be preferred and rewarded more than you.
There is only one alternative - self value.
If you cannot love yourself, you will not believe that you are loved.
You will always think it's a mistake or luck.
Take your eyes off others and turn the scanner within.
Find the seeds of your jealousy, clear the old voices and experiences.
Put all the energy into building your personal and emotional security.
Then you will be the one others envy, and you can remember the pain and reach out to them."
