Why are we jealous of emotional relationships?

Jealousy is serious feelings, can go your mind, destroy your relationships and may destroy your family, and in extreme cases can lead to murder.

The jealousy that instills anger that fuels all aggressive feelings and violence can cause untold damage to the emotional relationship. It is a very old, human and very natural emotion. It can sometimes play the role of savior or be the killer of emotional relationships, so it is necessary to know why and how it works. And where it comes from.

In his new book, "Treatment of Jealousy," Dr. Robert Leahy explains that jealousy often revolves around "three people." This happens when someone feels threatened by a third party, either by a party or by a third party Which pays attention to one of the parties to the relationship or that there is mutual interest.

He divides jealousy into two categories: sexual jealousy and jealousy over emotional rapprochement.

According to Leahy, a psychologist, men are more susceptible to sexual jealousy, while studies have shown that women are more likely to be jealous about emotional rapprochement, both of which can arise from a lack of security about their emotional relationship due to unclear expectations and unbalanced levels of commitment Previous experiences of giving up the emotional partner, and previous experiences also in betrayal.

However, the most surprising reason for jealousy is that jealousy is a product of high self-esteem that makes the behavioral defects of another person more obvious compared to their own shortcomings, as well as that human feeling may sometimes stem from envy.

"It is a sign of commitment, commitment and love," he said. Some even test their partners at times to see if they are jealous. "This is normal at moderate levels of jealousy."

If you are jealous of your relationship, there are some easy ways Dr. Leahy proposes to overcome this feeling:

  1. We must all realize that jealousy is mostly natural feelings and universal passion, and there is no error in feeling them.

2 - Abandon the behavior of control and stop questioning constantly and control attitudes, the more you enter into these practices the greater the sense of envy and jealousy.

  1. Talk to your partner about how you feel, develop some basic rules with your partner to make the relationship go well.

4 - Accepting that things do not go the way we always want, and perhaps the frequent and growing jealousy, may mean that this relationship is useless and you have to end.
