RomanceClass.com Advice Jealousy can ruin a relationship real fast.
The reason is that trust is one of the elemental aspects of a good relationship. If you don't have trust, the relationship is like a two legged chair... it will fall.
Practice getting over jealousy by fighting against it like it was an enemy... which it is. Whenever jealousy appears, tell it to go away that things are fine. Do this 100 times and the jealous feelings will give up and go away.
