How to deal with jealousy and insecurities?

Question

What do you think causes people to be jealous in relationships? I have heard people say if you are an insecure person you are more likely to cheat... why is that? What is your opinion on that?

Sometime I feel like I can't trust myself and that maybe what is causing me to have trust issues but I feel like it may be more than that. Its so bad that if he ( my hubby ) is talking about his day and mentions a conversation with another woman I become skeptical. I usually don't say anything to him but him cheating on me is always on my mind.

Has anyone dealt with this before? How did you deal/overcome it? And again how do you think having personal insecurities plays into you cheating?

Answer 1

step 1: acknowledge that there are plenty of reasons to be jealous.

step 2: learn to share. share things, people, lime light, etc. (i said share, not give away)
