I'm sooo jealous! I cannot help it or stop it. Whenever my boyfriend hangs out with one of his girl friends, or when he says he is at a girls house, or whatever the situation is, this jealous green monster comes out. He does act different around girls than he does me, I've seen it. HELP!!!!

There is a way to get over jealousy. It comes with confidence in yourself. I've always been a very jealous person and have battled with this my entire life. The times when I'm not jealous, it's because Im feeling the most confident. I recognized that I'm a good catch, that if a person was interested in cheating on me and then lying about it, then they'll have enough weight on their own shoulders and in a way that would be their problem.

Of course this all gets very complicated when you really like someone, but jealousy and confidence definitely go hand in hand. If you know you're overreacting then work on this, but if someone does something that makes you truly uncomfortable, (like hanging out 1 on 1 with another girl) then make this known. If the person really cares about you, then they'll do anything they can not to hurt you. If they continue doing it, see the situation for what it is and move on.

Well jealousy is a common thing. Its very likely for a woman or a man to get jealous over things. Weather it is between someone you have a crush on or someone you are in a relationship with. If your in a relationship and your boyfriend/girlfriend is hanging with the opposite sex it is very likely for you to get jealous because you most likely think the worst, like omg are they going to hook up or is he/she going to leave me for them. Its very common and there really to me is no cure to get over jealousy.
