Experience I overcome serious jealousy issues with conscious work and effort, and that was a very liberating experience. I also helped several people to abandon their jealous behavior and line of thinking.
Question Dear Itkin,
I found out, inadvertently, from a friend, about my boyfriend's recent sexual past and his sex life while we were in an open relationship while I was gone for a few months (before we were dating seriously). Once I knew a little bit, I had to know the details, and now I am devastated and repelled by him. I can't handle the fact that he hooked up with some girls that are in our grad school class, I am disgusted by the fact that he took random girls home to (now) our bed, and I can't stop thinking about the other girls. I am having trouble being attracted to him and it is interfering with our sexual relationship. How can I get over this?
Thank you
J
Answer Hi, J. Thanks for your question. First, tell me please - how old are you? How old is he? How is your relationship otherwise - in other words is there anything else you don't like about him or this is pretty much your main and only issue with him at this point?
