Through my life my point of view/understanding of jealousy has change for me. Most of us have had jealousy all our lives... siblings, coworkers, schoolmates, other's relationships and so on... to envy something we do not think we have. To feel betrayed by someone else's attention to another. Most of the time that unpleasant feeling is normal. Sometimes our significant other is just a user and a liar.....even if you do catch them... then what?? Hopefully they are out of your life. They cheated or were not honest... let them go. Heck ya it's painful. You do not want someone that is not on the same page with you. And sometimes the relationship has run it's course and instead of letting go... cheating is the stupid answer.

I can imagine things can get really out of control when we throw drugs and alcohol in the mix.

We will always be let down to an extent our whole lives. We can only get better at managing who we let in and trust. Sometimes we are fooled at first. That is not your fault. But learn to be aware that you are worthy of better.

I have had unwarranted jealousy aimed at me... it's annoying as heck. Red flags. I'm out.
