Jealousy

[wavejams007]

Yeah, I just want to post about a certian thing Iam sorta going through right now. To make this clear, my best friend is a girl, and their is not romantic connection between us. But it seems that whenever she tells me about something she did, like skating or something with a friend and all and Iam not present for it, I start getting jealous tendencies. I don't get it. Iam not a jealous person, and generally don't care who she hangs out with. But I get these tendencies get in the way.

Any explanations, suggestions, interpretations appreicated.

This is one of the unusual time when I have actually posed a relationship question. Wierd.

maybe you like her.. you just don't wanna admit it...

thing is, are worlds apart. Iam outgoing, tend to have bad boy tendencies but good heart inside, she is the ideal christian girl.

I don't even get how we are so close friends, but we are.

You do like her dude,its like a one-itis which you don't want to believe because of the differences you both have.

I have the same problem in a way,but here,the girl I like is super rich and I'm not.That's the difference I mess with everyday.

To get over your jealousy,you have to start hanging out with her more often.If you hang out with her a lot,she will start talking about stuff you both did together rather than stuff she did with someone last weekend and such.When she starts talking about stuff you did together,you will really enjoy it and feel your heart glow if you like her..And *Poof*..Jealousy is gone.

You like her, you just haven't realised it yet. Hanging out with her all the time means she might talk about what you both did together, but it will also make you like her a lot more, drive her away because you're seeing her too often, and probably make you look needy. Solutions: Hit on her; keep feeling jealous and let it pass; rationalise with the jealousy until you realise that it doesn't solve anything. Of course, having other girls will help you think of other things, tho.
