The Way to Manage Jealousy

Abstract

        The term “jealousy” is an emotion which typically refers to the thoughts and feelings of insecurity, fear, concern, and anxiety over an anticipated loss or status of something of personal value, particularly in reference to a human connection. This emotion is one of our manners. Jealousy isn't something we have much control over. In truth, it is a natural, instinctive emotion that everyone experiences at one point or another. The problem with jealousy is that it masks other feelings and attitudes that are even more hurtful to us and those closest to us. Its intensity is often shielding deep-seated feelings of possessiveness, insecurity or shame. People are familiar with it because it happens inside their own minds and they also feel it from the others. Jealousy can lead to many disadvantages toward oneself as well as other people, which are always shown on TV, newspaper and radio. Jealousy itself can take on a sort of wicked presence in our lives. Actions taken on its behalf have been known to crush a budding romance, slowly erode a longstanding union or even lead to serious abuse. The objective of this study is to describe characteristics, causes, disadvantages and suggestions.
