Are You The Jealous Type? ~ What If I Am?
Don't give me that dirty looks😒 I am being very frank here.
What is mine is mine and what is yours is yours.
I don't want what is yours and I don't expect you to want what is mine to the extent of even dragging it with me.
I might not really be the type that allows jealousy to consume but that doesn't also mean I don't feel that way most times.
Are You The Jealous Type?
Who isn't? Or better still, who wouldn't be?
Although I trained and disciplined myself in such a way that I don't give a grab about what you own or who you are.
The truth is even if I am jealous of something especially people's attention over another, I still wouldn't say or do a thing, I mean there isn't really any point or need for that. But this doesn't in any way mean I will still be the same, I doubt.
I see some people fighting over someone simply because of jealousy and stuff, I mean cut the crab, who does that these days?
If you are a guy or lady and someone is flirting with your partner, let them do it in peace, why bother yourself over nothing?
Or let's take for example you have a friend and you have been doing all you can to your best ability may be in a particular field, yet this your friend isn't noticing or appreciating your efforts but he or she keeps praising another person and the worst of all is that he or she rubs it to your face.
I mean this same person you desire appraisal from isn't giving it to you but rather giving it to another person and telling you all about it.
If you were that friend, tell me wouldn't you feel bad? Or even jealous? But even if you say you wouldn't be jealous, your mind and heart will never be the same again especially if it's a repeated thing.
Personally, I have a friend that used to do that, I didn't mind then because it wasn't my concern but it got to a point that I started feeling bad whenever the friend brings up a topic about the other person and keeps praising and all.
I mean I am here but I have never gotten such praises and I don't even think if someone else gets to know my struggle and efforts from that friend too yet I on this other side was listening to and receiving all the news and praises about another person.
I kept mute and kept on receiving everything rubbed on my face. I never said anything and I wouldn't. I stopped bringing up conversations that will include the other party because I know how it usually ends and it's not something I like.
It kept on for a while until I finally decided that there was no point feeling bad or jealous over another.
If a friend can't see your little efforts and dim it fit for encouragement then such a friend doesn't even deserve your jealousness.
Feel Good About Yourself Even When Others Don't Appreciate You
Like it or leave it, people will always esteem others higher than you no matter if you are their friends or not so why do you want to kill yourself over minute issues of life.
If your partner praises other people yet the least encouragement for you isn't there, then you might have to rethink or reconsider whatever is going on between you two.
No sensible person should make his or her partner feel any less worthy or whatsoever.
Don't make them feel jealous or be dragging words of praise from you with someone else.
If you can't make them feel good about themselves then stop making them feel their worst by constantly rubbing shits on their faces.
Appreciate your partners
Encourage your friends
One way or the other, individually we contribute to the way people feel and how they act out is what we have made of them.
By the way, guys, what's your take on this?

I would withdraw myself to someone who makes me feel jealous. I don't deserve that feeling. Hehe! I easily get jealous so cutting ties with those people will lead me to my peace.
