jealousy
I was recently left by my boyfriend of about a year. A few short weeks ago, we were discussing marriage, and then he had a complete change of heart. I am handling most of it pretty well, except for the jealousy. He is already dating and slept with someone else within a week. I don't know what to do with these feelings of betrayal, rage, and jealousy. I can make some sort of sense out of why he chose to leave, but not this. I'm becoming obsessed with thinking about where he is and who he's with at any given time. I need some ideas about how to cope with the jealousy, and not let it take over my emotional life.
Response
Jealousy is not a subject that I have typically encountered given that my work is focused on the grief of loss - the betrayal of grief is not the same as the betrayal of jealousy. A website devoted to relationships would be more well-suited to your questions
