how to stop jealousy in relationships

in #relationship10 years ago (edited)

Jealousy can only be stopped when you recognize that you are not the body, mind or thoughts.

you are the consciousness which observes everything.

When you realize that this consciousness doesn't lack anything you also realize that it doesn't matter what happens in life. Jealousy is only a form of illusion of possession.

The only way to drop it is staying in pure presence.

Then you realize that it doesn't matter whether you have a partner or not then you realize that you cannot be jealous or upset of them leaving.

Your consciousness is always complete. Your body might be lacking something or your thoughts might try to tell you something but consciousness is always still, at peace and complete in itself.

You are consciousness

I tend to take the glass-half-empty view instead. Rather than realizing you have everything you need (e.g., "your consciousness is always complete"), realize what you don't have: the ability to control others.

You can't change other people or make them love you. You can only change yourself. And you can't read minds, and you're not omniscient.

Every other human is just as real and just as complete as you are. They have their own thoughts, hopes, dreams, abilities. They are just as smart and just as developed of a person as you, give or take.

So if somebody really wants to lie to you, pretend something, cheat on you, talk negatively about you to others, and really, really wants to get away with it, you'll never have any clue. Other humans are more than smart and capable enough to pull that off. You'll think everything is normal, while the other person is laughing at you inside, but pretending otherwise. You'll never know.

You could lay awake in bed at night worrying about this until you puke, or you could just accept what you can't know and can't control and move on with your life.

If you can do it like that then yes :-) good reply. For me realizing that i am not my thoughts brought many more benefits. One of them being happy even when i am not in a partnership. People who are highly jealous are usually also unhappy if they don't have a partner. Some people can use their mind rationally like you.. Jealousy is a very strong emotion. Some people need to dig deeper. i like this discussion

For jealousy end, you must build trust, peace and security gives your partner:

You must maintain a good dialogue with it
