JEALOUSY is so real. These people will sit up n swear they ain't bothered, but secretly be OBSESSED with you. Plotting, watching your every move, waiting for any little thing to criticize. They smile in your face but deep down, they can't stand to see you winning. All you gotta do is be ATTRACTIVE , HAPPY, & MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS, and somehow, that's a problem. They can't handle the fact that you radiate confidence without needing validation. They hate that you're out here glowing, growing, and elevating while they're stuck in the same place. It's not even about what you have-it's about who you are. Your energy, your peace, your unapologetic self-love—that's what really eats them up inside. They can't figure out why they're so pressed over you, but THEY JUST ARE. Let them watch. Let them hate. Let them plot. You just keep doing YOU & stay prayed up, because at the end of the day, they're just mad they're not you.💯🗣️🗣️

... Read moreJealousy is a common human emotion, often signifying deep-rooted insecurities in the jealous person. It can manifest in various forms, from subtle criticism to overt hostility. Understanding why others feel this way can be empowering for those who are the targets of jealousy. It’s essential to focus on self-love, as this not only uplifts you but also inadvertently highlights the insecurities of others. Surround yourself with supportive people who celebrate your success. Maintain healthy boundaries to ensure that your energy remains positive. When faced with jealousy, remember that it's a projection of others' feelings rather than a reflection of your worth. Acknowledge the jealousy, but don’t let it dictate your happiness. Stay true to your path, and continue shining your light. This journey is about you, and no one else can define your success or happiness. Understanding jealousy as an emotional response can lead to personal growth and stronger self-advocacy. By cultivating self-awareness and practicing gratitude for your life and achievements, you foster resilience. Engage in self-care practices that encourage a sense of peace and fulfillment in your life. Whether through mindfulness, fitness, or creative outlets, these activities reinforce positive feelings and diminish the impact of jealousy around you.

Jealousy
~~Jealousy~~ Jealousy is the frquency of fear wrapped in comparison, masked as protection. It is not love. It is not instinct. It is not passion. Jealousy is the soul's scream that says: "I believe there is not enough--of love, attention, worth, or safety---for me to relax." It

Is jealousy in a relationship love or insecurity?
When I first started dating my ex, I thought his jealousy was sweet. If another guy complimented me, he’d get moody, and I took it as proof that he cared. But slowly, it turned into suspicion over the smallest things who I was texting, who I smiled at, even how I dressed. I realized it wasn’t love,
