Jealousy breeds in our shortcomings and our fears.Stop going over what is going wrong in you and focus on the positive. You may take a good look at the situation. If you suspect someone is cheating on you or if you're upset because someone has more than you, take a hard look. More than likely, the person you think has passed you up has problems of their own and your lover only has eyes for you. In addition, talk to a friend or family member who can give you a objective perspective on the situation and your jealous reactions. Good day to you!

jealousy is a poisonous feeling which have a potential to run a relationship. Often you may not realize the fact that you are jealous by mistaking it got possessiveness or a sign of deep love. Feeling jealous occasionally understandable but when it starts stalking your relationship and becomes the root cause of all most all your arguments. so be trust on each other is the best way to get over jealousy.

As a saying goes jealousy is simply and clearly the fear that you do not have value.Their is only one alternative that is self value.I think we can get over jealousy by thinking good/being optimist about your friends never feel bad about them that,they are going far ahead or doing better than you.Always do good things and respect whatever works you do and try to avoid fear from our mind.We always think of our self and whenever we sees other people or your friends doing something better than you,you feel very angry from inside/mind and feels like doing competition and doing better than them.I think the root cause of jealousy is self value.We think about yourself and we always have fear of loosing our self.We always want yourself to become first and better from other friends.
