How to Stop Feeling Jealous

by Ruchi on February 2, 2010

Jealousy is worst feeling, which we all must avoid to stay happy and make others happy. It becomes very hard to save your relationship when feeling of jealousy takes place.

Here are few reasons because of which people start feeling jealous:

1. Suffering from inferiority complex

2. Suspicious thoughts about your partner, boss, family members

3. Sad or feeling hurt.

4. Fear of losing someone or something

Here are some simple ways to cope up with feeling of jealousy:

1. Get confidence: Main reason of being jealous is low self esteem. Thus, you need to stop feeling insecure about yourself. Never think that other is better than you, everyone has some or other qualities, and it’s useless to compare with others. Always try to be positive about yourself and if you really think that you need to improve on something, try to achieve it. But, never get negative about yourself.

2. Trust other: Jealousy ruins every relation. If you think your friend will be with someone else, who is better than you then you are need to change your thinking. Trust your friend , no one is going to leave you because you lacking in anything which other have.

3. Communicate: If you think that you are developing feeling of jealousy because of any reason, the best solution is to talk about it with your friend. You might be thinking in extremes, thus instead of thinking so much without reason it is always better to discuss your feelings. This will help you to gain confidence and you will take things positively. But while communicating, you should never be biased and ready to accept your faults positively.

4. Be Positive: When we feel jealous, we start thinking in extremes. You should never assume that other is luckier to have something which you don’t have, other have lots of other problems which you don’t have. Think twice before making any conclusions. You will find that you are luckier than other person, with whom you are jealous. Be positive and keep yourself motivating towards that person/thing. Better to pay attention on your goals, instead of what others have achieved in life.

5. Stop Comparing: This is the best solution. Once you will stop comparing your life with others, you will never get feeling of jealousy. Once you will start comparing with others, same moment you will start losing self –confidence. You will only think negatively about yourself and start ruining your relations. As soon as you start comparing with others, you need to stop that thread and think about positive things you have in you. This will surely help you to stop feeling jealous.

I think jealousy is a feeling that’s within everyone of us, but only the degree matters. Others can kill because of jealousy, while others can handle it good.

Of the ways you mentioned, I go definitely for communication, though others I guarantee are helpful, too, to cope up jealousy.
