Although some jealousy or jealousy can be considered healthy, if left hidden or not recognized. The situation can turn bad and cause big problems.

The first thing you want to do if your partner is jealous or jealous is reflect yourself to make sure you don't make the situation worse. Things that can worsen the situation include if you try to tease others to provoke a jealous response to your partner. Or if you boast about work achievement when you know your partner is feeling inferior about their own position in your career.

After understanding clearly how your own actions have affected the jealous or jealous of your partner's behavior, Friedman suggests that you "start by making promises to speak so that your partner doesn't feel attacked or surprised."

After you do it and are ready to start a discussion, avoid asking your partner directly if they are jealous of you, because it can make them feel attacked. Instead, he suggests that you "share what you're paying attention to, how you feel, and ask your partner to do the same."

Conversations are a good step to relieve the surge in feelings. Friedman suggests learning to have open dialogue and to be curious about your partner.

To keep yourself calm, he suggests you offer support to your partner as they are ready to reflect on their deeper feelings, but don't get involved when conversations feel unproductive or unstable.
