Dearest Melinda
We've all experienced jealousy at some time in our lives,
although the reasons why each of us gets jealous and the
emotions we feel may differ.
According to clinical psychologist Ayala Malach
Pines, "jealousy is a complex reaction to a perceived threat
to a valued relationship or to its quality". Unlike envy, it
always involves a fear of loss and three people.
Jealousy is a "complex reaction" because it involves such a
wide range of emotions, thoughts and behaviours.
Emotions - pain, anger, rage, sadness, envy, fear, grief,
humiliation.
Thoughts - resentment, blame, comparison with the rival, worry
about image, self-pity.
Behaviours - feeling faint, trembling and sweating, constant
questioning and seeking reassurance, aggressive actions, even
violence.
Jealousy heightens emotions, making love feel stronger and sex
more passionate. In small, manageable doses, jealousy can be a
positive force in a relationship. But when it's intense or
irrational, the story is very different.
Overcoming jealousy takes patience and hard work. If you feel
your jealousy stems from issues in childhood, you may find
counselling useful. If you're recovering from an affair,
you'll need to deal with those issues first.
