Jealousy is a powerful force by wzzm13 :: 2007-02-08
Sexual jealousy is sometimes considered a petty emotion. But jealousy and the pain of thwarted love are powerful forces.

Insanely jealous: The One turns fearless females into insecure wets by guardian :: 2007-01-10
I've become insanely jealous of my partner, despite the fact that he has never given me any reason to be. I've become anxious when he talks to other women. I'm always checking up on him if he sits next to an attractive woman or laughs at female friends' jokes. Things overheated when I went through his phone while he was in the shower and found texts from one female friend. They were innocent but I just flipped and screamed at him. -- Checking your partner's phone for messages is never a signal of a healthy state of mind. I have witnessed fearless females turn into insecure wets when they find themselves hitched up to the man they've decided is The One. [Trouble Arising - Jealously and Low self-esteem]

Is it love or is it jealousy - The jealous boyfriend by health24 :: 2006-10-24
The jealous boyfriend seems to be a popular issue. Does he love me? Why doesn't he like me to have friends? Why does he spy on me? Why is he jealous of everyone who talks to me? Will it get better if I marry him? -- Our society places a high premium on love relationships. Being single is not regarded as a desirable state. Coupled with this is the fact that so many people have poor self-images. "And ironically, poor self-image seems to intensify within relationships, as it is the possible loss of the partner that brings deep-seated insecurities to the fore."

Why Men Are More Aggressive - Genes and hostile attitudes by sciencedaily :: 2006-07-08
Aggression in men may be due to variations in one of two genes involved in the activity of the neurotransmitter serotonin, according to a study. However, men with the 'aggression' genes aren't necessarily all cads; genetics appears to be predictive only if men have hostile attitudes and fathers who never completed high school. Moreover, a genetic predisposition toward aggression could be rebuffed by a mother who nurtures her infant, suggests another study involving primates.

Jealousy In Relationships by articlealley :: 2006-03-04
Why does one feel jealous? Is the relationship weak? Jealousy is a fact of life. You have total faith that your child may run around and play with many people around the day. But he/she will return to you at night? You don't have the same faith with your lover/spouse. And that is the main cause of jealousy. Somewhere in your mind, you are always wondering about your looks, your intelligence, your relationship skills and all other factors that may break your relationship and make your spouse/lover go into another relationship. The best way out is to discuss without hesitation everything in your mind with your spouse/lover and expose all your fears. Be totally open. [Trouble Arising - Jealously and Low self-esteem]

How To Kill Jealousy by articlecity :: 2006-02-23
Letting your jealousy show is a fail-safe way to lose your dignity and dismantle your self-esteem. Nothing will ruin a relationship or marriage faster than jealously. It creates anxiety, anger, loneliness, hate and fear. Jealousy makes the person unattractive, even transforming them from lover and supporter, to enemy. The primary cause is a breakdown in communications, and this usually happens for one of two reasons: Something has changed, and for some reason you don't feel able to communicate openly anymore... Or perhaps one partner is manipulating power by withholding information out of anger, hurt or even just plain thoughtlessness. [Trouble Arising - Jealously and Low self-esteem]

How I Got Rid of the green-eyed Monster called Jealousy by articlealley :: 2006-01-25
Make a decision to get rid of Jealousy. That means telling yourself that you have had it with the attitude of being suspicious, distrusting and possessive. Have respect for yourself. If your partner abandons you, put your hurt behind and start life over. If he actually cheats on you, he is not worth your time and effort. Learn how to communicate effectively. Don't nag. Don't bring out old issues - they put a stop for further constructive conversations. Learn to listen without interrupting, judging and probing. If you must ask, do it with the intent to seek understanding. Love everyone including yourself unconditionally. [Trouble Arising - Jealously and Low self-esteem]

Wife wants husband to see friendship is just plutonic by heraldbulletin :: 2005-12-28
My husband is jealous of my best friend. I've been married to my husband for more than five years, but have been best friends with 'Bob' since I was in third grade. 'Bob' and I are just friends, always have been and always will be. -- My advice is to ease up on phone calls and outings with 'Bob' for awhile, but don't cut off all ties. If 'Bob' is truly a good friend he will understand that you need to help your husband feel secure. During this time, invite 'Bob' over for dinner with you and your husband and let them get to know each other. I believe if your husband comes to know 'Bob' and see you two interact, he will not be as threatened. [Trouble Arising - Jealously and Low self-esteem]

Trust: Why Do We Need It? by ezinearticles :: 2005-12-21
In general, people who trust have better interpersonal relationships. People who don't trust tend to be more angry, competitive, and resentful. A betrayal of trust is difficult for most people to forgive. Sometimes we may be annoyed by a new friend for being on the reserved side, but each individual is so complex and has so many experiences, feelings, needs, opinions, etc. that he can't possibly reveal all sides of himself to a new acquaintance. So, he shows only parts of his real self. Why does he do that? Why do we all? Probably because of fear of rejection and our own sensitivity or vulnerability. [Trust: Relationship Issue]

You're the one that I want - but first, cut your hair by dailyutahchronicle :: 2005-12-07
Why do women insist on changing men once they're in a relationship? In life, there are two types of people: those who can change and those who can't. If you are a woman searching for the perfect man, you might be more likely to consider the majority of the world in that first category. While looking for love, too many women feel that in order to be happy they must not only find a partner, but also make him into a different person - a "better person." Why do so many equate relationships with remodeling? [Trouble Arising - Jealously and Low self-esteem]

Parenting: Here Comes Trouble by PsychologyToday :: 2005-12-01
In a study that strips the sentimentality off new parenthood, a researcher reports that 50 to 80% of new mothers and 30% of new fathers suffer depression, setting them up to be unresponsive to their new baby and to each other.

Studies of newlyweds show that for 67%, childbirth brings conflict, hostility and alienation, which starts many couples down the road to divorce. [Parenting & Motherhood]

My valued friendship of almost a decade has gradually been going toxic for the last two years.
