5 ways to overcome jealousy in your marriage

-

In most cases, jealousy does not always mean that your spouse is upset with or insecure about you. Sometimes, jealousy can stem from "deep" love. Whether you are the jealous partner or whether your spouse is the jealous one, irrational jealousy can eventually destroy your marriage. Jealousy is a reaction to a perceived threat_real or imagined_to a valued relationship or to its quality. However, when you observed any of the following habits, then, there's jealousy in your marriage; resentment, lack of trust, anger, more arguments, need for continual reassurance, desire for revenge, constant questioning which may in turn lead to end of your marriage. To understand how you can deal with a jealous spouse, or your own jealousy, understand the reason behind that.

1). Your imagination
It is possible that you imagine the worst scenarios and are always worried that your spouse is doing something behind your back. But just because it is in your head, does not mean it is real. Invest your quality time in activity so that you can make better use of your time.

2). Outsider's perspective
Instead of analyzing your marriage on your own, look at it from an outsider’s perspective. Imagine the situation is something that your friend is going through and then take a look at it. How would you have reacted? What would you suggest your friend did in that situation? When you look at the situation from a different perspective, it will give you a fresher and clearer approach.

3). You need more trust
Instead of getting worried each time your partner is with someone or goes out without you, have confidence in him. However, if you continue to be jealous, it can definitely tear your marriage apart.

4). Value Yourself
There are times when you feel that your spouse is too good for you and you are not worthy of him/her, especially when there are so many amazing people out there. Instead of losing confidence in yourself, build on your strengths and and start loving yourself.

5). Don't spy on your spouse.

More importantly, hiring managers are just people. With this in mind, the only thing you really need to do to stand out is to have the one resume that actually lets them breathe a sigh of relief during this painful process.
