overcoming jealousy in relationships

came across this article a few hrs bac..hehs =Pp

Here are five ways to get a grip on your jealousy before you lose control and do something you may later regret

1Learn from past experiences
Look at how your behavior affected past relationships and use that to help you behave better. You may soon discover that these tantrums are the cause of your troubled love life. Realize that getting upset with her for no reason won't help your situation.

2Deal with reality
Focus on what is really happening, not what you perceive to be happening because with time, you may end up having difficulty distinguishing fact from fiction, and you don't want to kill an otherwise perfect relationship over things that never really happened. Don't let your imagination dictate the kind of person he really is.

3Respect yourself
Realize that he chose you for a reason and there is no need for him to be so easily tempted elsewhere. Remind yourself that you're every bit as deserving as those guys you feel threatened by.

4Get a third party's opinion
Ask a friend to take note of your behavior around your boyfriend. It may help you to fully understand the extent of your actions (as well as his) by getting a neutral party's perspective.

5Set some rules early on
Try establishing some general guidelines as to what is and isn't acceptable for you. This way, you'll both have justification for outbursts when either of you is behaving improperly.
