I am very much frustrated due to my Ex's new boy friend. After breaking with me she had a new boyfriend but she did not able to maintain that relation also but the main hurt thing is her friends are gossiping that he was very caring than me and he is a nice guy,he is having money,car etc..Even I can have all those later but right now I am feeling very much jealous which is diverting my mind to concentrate from my office job, I can not talk to my friends properly, I am getting irritation in small argument also. Some time I feel like a looser, some time I am managing my self. Give me some suggestion to stay cool and calm in this situation.

Stop worry about what others think. You cannot control this and really most of us would be surprised how little others really think of us. Most are to busy with their own lives to bother about others. Also do not wish to have another's life, there is no way you can possiblily know what troubles that person has. Stick to you career and goals, look for a partner who loves you for yourself, not what you can provide in the way of worldly goods. If you have goals that mix together all the better, because both of you can work toward them. You are in charge of your life so don't stumble over what others have or will have. Blessings The girl you lost wasn't worth much anyway.

Everyone is unique in this world. Some people gets famous and successful very early and few others take some time. It's not good to get yourself compared to others and get frustrated, rather observe the people who are more successful than you and take a leaf out of them and go ahead. Just sitting idle and crying on your failures doesn's solve the the problem.

Oh man! Are you still interested in the girl?? Why are you even keeping tabs on the girl and her boyfriends? Anyways, i dont really think there is anything to be worried about. There are people who are financially better than us and there are people who are economically weaker than us. Our financial status should never be something which should worry us. and it should never make us feel low. One day or the other, if we work towards it, you will definitely be better than that guy. As far as care is concerned, then it is your mistake if the girl thinks that the new guy cares more for her than you cared her. If it is only what other people feel, then it is not your mistake. Only you and the girl know what your relationship was and how you both felt about each other when you were together. Anyways, it is all past history and you should be questioning yourself whether you have really let go off her or not. Because, since you are keeping tabs on the girl and getting jealous and you are not able to concentrate on your work properly, may be you need to move on leaving the girl. She has already moved on., you should keep that in mind. All the best for the future. You are not a loser. It is just that, you are worrying about something that is not concerned with you.

Hi, I think you are just getting more affected because you also compare yourself with the other guy. I suggest you what if you just don't care or tell them that your glad that she is happy now with the other guy because if you love the person you have to let her go if that makes her happy. :) And don't focus on gossip it won't hurt you if you just pass it through you ears. :) Have a good day!
