Most of the time, feeling jealousy is out of oneโ€™s hands. Itโ€™s not a likable feeling that someone would on purpose choose to feel. However, we still do!! And itโ€™s stupid. There isnโ€™t a secret recipe for you to stopย but there are a lot of reasons why you shouldnโ€™t be jealous. Reasons that would repel you from that feeling soย you hopefully wouldnโ€™t allow yourself to ever be jealous again. Jealousy comes in many shapes and sizes but here in Egypt, itโ€™s mostly about jealousy in relationships.

  1. Jealousy is a passive act to whatever problem you’re having

If you come to think of it, getting jealous isnโ€™t a constructive thing to do. All it does is stir negativity. If thereโ€™s something you can change or do about what’s bothering you regardingย your spouse’s behavior, try talking to them about it. That would be theย mature and positive thing to do.

  1. Means that youโ€™re not confident

Being jealous usually means that youโ€™re not self confident, that you donโ€™t embrace your uniqueness and think youโ€™re not enough. The more you get jealous, the more it destructs and depreciates your self confidence and esteem. Itโ€™s more of a vicious cycle.

  1. It destructs relationships

This happens for more than one reason. Jealousy means that there is lack of trust and relationships that lack trust always end inย failure. If youโ€™re the type of person who gets jealous basically over any silly little thing and constantly nag your partner, you might actually be the reason behind them cheating. They think you point fingers at them in any case andย if you donโ€™t believe them one way or another then they might at least get blamed for something they actuallyย did. Stressing them out all the time, might compel them to look for a way out.

  1. Whoever makes you jealous isnโ€™t worth it because if theyย really loved you, they shouldnโ€™t leave room for that

Sometimes you get rightfully jealous because your partner has a history of cheating or becauseย they act reallyย suspicious. In that case, it might be torturous to stay with someone like that because whoever makes you feel like that all the time isnโ€™t worthy of your love or attention. Where is yourย sense of security?
