I'm searching for books about jealous people, does anyone have ideas? Fiction or nonfiction. What provokes a person to react negatively when they want something someone else has? How should the victim of their behavior respond?

Maybe do a search on Amazon.com. Just a suggestion. I"ve had a whole library of self-help books in the past, but none dealng with jealousy. For me, I know if I should find myself having jealous feelings, I feel ill! , and work hard to get myself out of it! It's such a poisonous emotion.
Let us know what you find.

Thanks, I found "When OK Just isn't Enough" by Hemerling. This book has a chapter on what makes people jealous and how to recognize it.

I was actually asking because I'm on the other end of jealousy. Yes, it's poisonous, for both parties. I don't like to see relationships ending over jealousy.
