Jealousy can be the most evil thing. Everyone is jealous at least once in their life. Jealousy comes in many different ways. Someone could become jealous because their boyfriend or girlfriend is spending more time with another boy or girl. Someone could be jealous of another person because of the car they own or the clothes they wear. Jealousy leads to envy. You begin to envy people because of your jealousy. In my honest opinion, jealousy is stupid. There is no reason to be jealous in a relationship. Being in a relationship means having trust in each other. Okay, I take that back. There are reasons to become jealous. But not to the point of being envy of people because of material things. When a person in a relationship becomes jealous of their boyfriend or girlfriend it causes the relationship to go downhill. Jealousy sucks, but you have to figure out a way to deal with it. I would love to say that it is very easy to not become jealous, but it isn't. It isn't our faults, it is society's fault. The culture we grow around teaches us that it is normal to be a jealous person. But in reality it truly isn't. There are multiple ways to stop your jealousy before it gets out of hand. For example, lets say that your boyfriend or girlfriend has a very good friend who is of the opposite sex and they like to hang out together. Now, this makes you very jealous, but first you need to stop and think...is there any reason from past encounters where you shouldn’t be able to trust your boyfriend or girlfriend together with this person? If there isn’t any reason they can’t be trusted together, then there is your first sign that being jealous of it is a waste of time. Therefore all you have to do is trust them and calm down. Jealousy can be avoided by taking a second and thinking it all through. In the end, being jealous is stupid and immature.
